The building's construction, completed in 1857 in tandem with the adjacent (to the east) Jones and Derenne Range, is attributed to Charles Sholl and Calvin Fay. Savannah Cotton Exchange, adjacent to the west, was built in 1887, thirty years after the Claghorn and Cunningham Range.[1]

During the Civil War, Claghorn and Cunningham was a chandlery.[2]

In 1887, Claghorn and Cunningham, wholesalers,[3] wrote a letter of reference in a Yulee vs. Canova lawsuit in the Supreme Court of Florida:

Messrs. Smith & Ives:

Gents: We have bought sugar here lately within a week at $4.50 to $5, and about two months ago at $3.50, which is the range of the market, and are now retailing at $6 per pound.

Very truly yours,

Claghorn & Company[4]
