Notes
  • Significance: Probably built in 1706 for Col. Thomas Addison, the house was later owned by Rev. Henry Addison who sponsored the career of Rev. Jonathan Boucher, the tutor of George Washington's stepson. Rev. Addison returned to England at the out-break of the Revolutionary War and the property was confiscated. With the aid of his nephew, George Plater, later governor of Maryland, Addison regained "Barnaby Manor" where Addison died in 1789. The property continued to be owned by the Addison family through the 1940's. By 1955, however, the house had fallen into ruin and only one chimney remained. The site is now part of a housing development.
