This plantation in St Mary's County, Maryland stands on the Patuxent River, and the house runs ghost tours annually. The guides say they experience something on every one of them.

The river gives it a second layer of story, since privateers and worse worked this coast.

The account attached to the family concerns money. They ran into difficulty, and the husband made a decision about it.

What is asserted about that decision is not documented and is not repeated here.

What should be said is what a plantation on the Patuxent was. St Mary's County was the first English settlement in Maryland, tobacco was the crop, and tobacco in this colony was grown by enslaved people from the 1600s onward. The wealth in these houses came from them, and the trouble the owners got into was trouble about money that was never theirs to begin with.

The property is private and tours are seasonal.
