About

[edit]

It is a seven-part brick mansion in which the central block is the original, Federal portion, built about 1800. The hyphens, wings, and additions were built during the first decade of the 20th century to replace earlier hyphens and wings. It was home to members of the Tilghman and Lloyd families.[2] Later it was occupied by the Starr family and Ruth Starr Rose in 1906, and remodeled a year later in 1907.[2]
