Lawrence Washington of Sulgrave Manor
I found that the ancestor of US President George Washington, Lawrence Washington (c.1500-1584), father to Robert (c.1554-1619), on 26 July 1529, was a bailiff at Warton (in the Barony of Kendal) to Sir William Parr, Baron Parr of Horton, uncle to Queen Catherine. Lawrence was the son of John and Margaret Washington. By his mother, he was a nephew of Sir Thomas Kytson of Hengrave, son of Robert of…

Sigma Alpha Epsilon Chapter House of Miami University
310 Tallawanda Rd.
Oxford, OH
Sigma Alpha Epsilon Chapter House of Miami University is a registered historic building in Oxford, Ohio. SAE has been a fixture on Miami’s campus for 98 years and there is no reason to believe that will be changing anytime soon. In a time when most fraternities in this country are struggling, SAE continues to thrive in Oxford. The building was modeled after Sulgrave Manor, ancestral home of George Washington. The cornerstone was laid in November 1937 and the house was completed the following year. It was listed in the National Register of Historical Places on February 8, 2005. After re-recolonizing in the spring of 2016, the chapter is stronger than ever. It organized and led fundraising for the highly successful philanthropy event, Drop the Puck on Cancer that involved 7 other fraternities on campus as well.

D.C.
Tumblr media
It is always a treat to be in D.C.  The weather was perfect for baseball yesterday.  Peter and I copped a couple of $5.00 seats (section 401, row M, seats 1 and 2).  As far away from home plate as you can get, but for us, the best view in the house. I have posted a Sulgrave Manor photo before, but I am always drawn to this particular  entry.  I really like this part of Connecticut Avenue.  It was…

Our great American tales
Our great American tales
For a good part of its history, Northamptonshire was at the centre of events that shaped our country, however in recent years, for the most part, the county has forgotten or lost its historical soul. Whilst towns and cities like Canterbury, Lincoln or York celebrate its past, ours disappears in obscurity. True we have no huge castle or fabulous medieval building to hang our history on, but it’s…

Sulgrave Manor
 I wasn't overly taken with it here in all honesty. The house is nice and is a relatively interesting museum. However, I had been sucked in by the tagline of 'the ancestral home of George Washington' and expected this site to be more grand. A nice place to visit for a couple of hours, but rather anticlimactic - RoxyB.��
I mean, lets not get over excited here, I was expecting something with little bit more freedom, democracy and probably some guns, considering it is co-owned by our american cousins (treasonable colonialists). But I found it lacking in anything attention grabbing. Maybe spruce things up for my next visit? Thank you, please.- TommyC 
Cost: Adult £7.20, concession £6.75, child (age 5-16) £3.60, family (2 adults and up to 3 children) £20. 
Opening hours : Thursday, Friday and Sunday 11.00-17.00

Washington Old Hall  Tyne and Wear  UK
Thursday 13 July 2017
*********************************************************************************
The manor was the ancestral home of the family of George Washington, the first President of the United States.
William de Hertburne, an ancestor of George Washington, assumed tenancy of the Wessyngton lands from the Bishop of Durham for an annual fee of £4. Soon after, he changed his name to William de Wessyngton (later Washington).
The estate is of Anglo-Saxon origin, originally being "Hwæssingatūn", meaning "estates of the descendents of Hwæssa". In 1613 the Washington family moved south to Sulgrave Manor, and the manor was sold to the Bishop of Durham.
The Wessyngton (Washington) Family had not owned Washington Old Hall since the early 15th century when Sir William Mallory married Dionysia Tempest, the last Wessyngton heir at the Hall. Dionysia was daughter of Sir William Tempest and his cousin, Eleanor Wessyngton. The sale in 1613 was by Sir John Mallory and Anna Eure, investors in the Virginia charter.
