Richard R. Hightower (1764-1820) and Nancy L. Smith Hightower (1770-1849( were early settlers in the Brentwood area. He was a physican and large landowner. Their daughter Sarah Clements "Sally" Hightower married Oliver Bliss Hayes and became a member of the Hayes clan of Nashville - see Rokeby, etc. The land sat to the west of Windy Hill Farm in the original Brentwood settlement.
Hightower sold the property to William Aurelius"Buck" Davis (1824-1875) and Judith Robertson Owen Davis (1830-1895) in 1865 after the Davis family sold Mountview. In 1872, Buck Davis sold the place to his brother Thomas Walker Davis, Sr. (1839-1918) and Anne "Annie" Aldrich Davis (1842-1923). His son T. W.
