The Wilson–Finney–Land House, at 1750 Bethany Rd. in Morgan County, Georgia near Madison, Georgia, was built in 1805. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.^[1]

It was the main house of cotton plantation having more than 3,500 acres (14 km²). The listing also includes a garage and several contributing objects.

The main house was built as an I-house by James Wilson around 1805. It was later owned and lived in by Abraham McAfee, who was a captain in the local militia and was the second sheriff of Morgan County. A later owner named James Finney added Greek Revival and Italianate features to the house, including the front door surround and decorative brackets supporting the eaves. A later owner, Cincinnatus Land, added Craftsman details, including a wraparound porch with square columns on brick piers.^[2]

It was deemed "significant in the area of architecture as an excellent example of a house that has evolved over time to meet the needs of its occupants and the changing architectural styles."^[2]
