The four sites in the project area possess integrity of location,design,setting,materials,and workmanship.All of the sites are assessed as significant for its information content. The sites have yielded information important for understanding historic habitation and animal husbandry activity in the area. Site 31147 is additional assessed as significant under Criterion"b" based on the site's association with the Reverend John Davis Paris and his family. The landowner plans to construct a small, approximately 14-lot residential subdivision within the project area.The documentation of Site 31144, Site 31145, Site 31146, and Site 31147 adequately document them and no further work or preservation is recommended.
