Joseph Jordan House, also known as Boykin's Quarter, Jordan's, and Hatty Barlow Moody Farm, is a historic home located near Raynor in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, United States. The original structure was built about 1795, and is a 1+12-story, three-bay, frame structure with brick ends. It was later expanded with a two-story, one room, frame addition and a one-bay kitchen ell. The house features clerestory monitors that were probably added about 1820–1840. Also on the property are a variety of contributing outbuildings.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
