Lee, Historical -Foundation of the Presbyterian and Reformed Church, Montreat, North -Carolina. - - - - - Introduction - - -At the edge of the busy commercial area of the community of McLean, -hidden from the heavy traffic on Dolley Madison Boulevard by a -natural screen of trees and shrubs, stands the substantial brick -dwelling known as Salona. Only a portion of the original 466 acres -surrounds the house; the rest of the land has been converted into -church properties, shopping centers, residential subdivisions, and -other appurtenances of development. - -Originally, the land was part of a large grant of 2,630 acres taken -out by Thomas Lee in 1719 from the Northern Neck proprietor, and -later named "Langley," a name which persists in the area to the -present day. - -The Reverend William Maffitt of Maryland purchased the 466-acre -parcel in 1812, and he may have been the builder of the brick house -at Salona to which President James Madison fled when the British -burned the capital in August, 1814. - -After the death of Maffitt, the property went through the hands of -several northerners who were part of the influx of Yankees just prior -to the outbreak of the Civil War. The parcel was divided into several -pieces. - -Jacob G. Smoot of Georgetown, D.C., purchased 208 acres, including -the house, in 1853. He and his descendants owned Salona for almost -100 years--through the Civil War when Camp Griffin troops were -temporary residents in tent villages on Salona and surrounding -property and in the extended period of rebuilding during the -agricultural era following. They witnessed and were part of the -subdivision of lands for suburban tract housing. - -As a reflection of changes experienced in the Washington metropolitan -area following World War II, Clive DuVal, a veteran, came from -New York to accept employment with the federal government. He and his -wife Susan purchased Salona with the idea of restoring it and using -it for a family residence. - -[Illustration] - -The DuVals entered into a period of community participation which -repeatedly involved the house as a center for meetings, tours and -entertainment. Because it was a sound, comfortable, gracious old -house with historical associations and community significance, they -decided to grant a permanent historic and scenic easement to Fairfax -County in 1971, preserving the house, its brick outbuildings and -eight acres of land surrounding them in perpetuity. A temporary -easement for 44 additional acres of the Salona property was granted -at the same time, fitting in with the county's stated purpose to -shape the character, direction and timing of community development -through the preservation of open space land. - -Because of its historical associations, the house was placed on the -Virginia State Landmarks Register and on the National Register of -Historic Places in 1973. - - - - - I - - LANGLEY AND THE LEES - - -The brick house known as Salona stands solidly on a portion of the -original grant known as "Langley," a tract named by Thomas Lee for -ancestral Lee lands in Shropshire, England. - -Thomas Lee was born in Westmoreland County, Virginia, in 1690, the -fifth son of Richard Lee, II, a member of the King's Council and -Naval Officer and Receiver of Customs for the Potomac. When Richard -died in 1714, young Thomas succeeded his father as Naval Officer for -the Potomac. Three years earlier, in 1711, he had been appointed -resident agent along with his uncle, Edmund Jenings, for Lady -Catherine Fairfax. She was proprietor of the Northern Neck grant of -over 5,000,000 acres of land originally made by Charles II in exile -to seven loyal followers, in 1649. She had become dissatisfied with -the management of her agents Micajah Perry and Robert Carter. While -his uncle was in England, Thomas Lee kept the books for the -proprietary and visited most of the farflung Fairfax property. After -his uncle returned to Virginia and took over the books, Lee used the -knowledge gained from his work with the Fairfax estate to acquire -grants of his own, among them, in 1719, the Langley tract of 2,862 -acres on the Potomac River between Great Falls and Little Falls. -Because of the strategic location of this tract, he hoped to benefit -from the economic development of the western lands. While he never -realized this dream, he did become president of the King's Council -and, in 1749, acting governor of the Colony.[1] - -After Thomas Lee's death in 1750, the Langley property went to his -eldest son, Philip Ludwell Lee, who also was a member of the King's -Council. A Royalist by preference he did not share the revolutionary -enthusiasms of his younger brothers, Richard Henry Lee, and Francis -Lightfoot Lee, signers of the Declaration of Independence. Moreover, -Philip Ludwell Lee, as administrator of his father's estate, was -responsible for paying their legacies to the younger children. These -legacies were never paid in full, an omission which further widened -the gap between him and his siblings.[2] In the tradition of his -father who had envisioned development of the upper Potomac, Philip -Ludwell Lee established the Town of Philee on 100 acres at the Little -Falls of the Potomac. Although he actually built warehouses there, -the town was doomed to failure.[3] - -Philip Ludwell Lee died in 1775, and the Langley tract was divided -between his two daughters: Matilda, who married Henry (Light Horse -Harry) Lee, and Flora, who married Ludwell Lee of Belmont in Loudoun -County. Matilda inherited the portion on which Salona was built. If -any buildings existed on the tract at that time, it seems probable -that Matilda, as the elder daughter, would have been given the -section on which they were located.[4] - -By an ironic twist of fate, in 1782, Matilda Lee, daughter of -die-hard Royalist Philip Ludwell Lee, married Henry Lee, a dashing -young officer in the American forces, whose brilliant military -exploits at Brandywine, Monmouth, and Paulus Hook (now Jersey City) -won him the esteem of General George Washington, the soubriquet of -"Light Horse Harry," and, in 1780, promotion to the rank of -lieutenant-colonel. - -"Harry" Lee was the son of Henry Lee of Leesylvania, in Prince -William County, and Lucy Grymes Lee. His father was a member of the -House of Burgesses for many years and when the war with England -began, was in charge of recruiting and equipping troops for -Washington's army. After serving as a delegate to the Continental -Congress of 1785-88 and the Virginia Constitutional Convention of -1788, he was elected to the Virginia Legislature where he served -until 1791. His wife, Matilda, died in 1790, leaving him a son, -Henry. Matilda left the Langley tract to her son, with a life -interest to her husband.[5] - -To assuage his grief, Harry Lee plunged deeper into politics and in -1791 was elected Governor of Virginia. Two years later he married -again, this time to Anne Hill Carter of Shirley. One of their sons was -Robert E. Lee, later commander-in-chief of the Armies of the -Confederacy. After a two-year term in Congress, Harry Lee's star began -to wane. His attempt to establish a town, Matildaville, at the Great -Falls of the Potomac, had failed, and his other land speculations had -gone sour. Eventually he spent two years in debtor's prison in -Westmoreland County, where he had once sat as a justice. In 1810, he -moved his family to Alexandria, and in 1812, was given a permanent -commission as a major-general in the United States Army, but his -failing health made it impossible for him to take part in the war -against England. He spent his last days in the West Indies, in a vain -attempt to recover his health. He died in 1818.[6] - -[Illustration: _Thomas Lee's 1719 grant, adjoining Turberville, -showing the future 208-acre Smoot property at Salona._] - -Harry's brother, Richard Bland Lee, did all he could to keep economic -ruin from devastating the former war hero, but managed only to get -himself deeper in debt. In 1808, during the period of financial -disaster, Harry Lee and his son sold the Langley tract to Richard -Bland Lee for $25,000. William Maffitt was a witness.[7] - -No records or correspondence have yet appeared to indicate that any -of the Lees built a dwelling on the Langley tract. Thomas Lee had the -money, but architectural historians do not believe the house was -constructed during his lifetime. Philip Ludwell Lee could have built -on the tract, especially because of his town, Philee, on the Potomac, -but again the house does not appear to be old enough to have been -built during his lifetime. - -Light Horse Harry Lee might have built the house when he was involved -with the development of Matildaville; estimated dates for the -construction range from 1790 to 1810. But after 1803 both Harry Lee -and his brother Richard Bland Lee were facing financial difficulties -and probably would not have built a large brick house on the Langley -tract at that time. - -During Richard Bland Lee's ownership of Langley, the land was rented -to tenants.[8] A Lee descendant wrote in 1969 that "no Lee ever -resided at 'Langley.' During the Lee tenure, 1719-1839, the place was -always rented out."[9] So far, no listing of these tenants has been -discovered. The only person mentioned as a tenant is J. C. Scott.[10] -Scott has not been satisfactorily identified, although he may have -been John Caile Scott, grandson of Alexander Scott, owner of -Strawberry Vale.[11] He could have leased a portion of Langley and -even built a house on the property. That this was customary in those -days is shown by the terms of a lease agreement between Richard -Bland Lee and Henson Lewis, which reveals that Lewis leased 130 acres -of Lee's Cub Run tract on which he consented to pay taxes, plant and -maintain an apple orchard, and construct a brick or stone framed -dwelling at least 16 feet square and a brick or stone framed barn. -This lease clearly indicates that a tenant on the Langley tract might -have built Salona under the terms of a similar contract.[12] - -[Illustration: _Advertisement for Salona_, Alexandria Gazette, -_November 18, 1811._] - -A bible entry cited by Melvin Steadman in his book on Falls Church -reports that Thomas Sandford Wren "was born at Salona" on May 19, -1808, to Richard and Susannah (Adams) Wren.[13] According to -Steadman, Thomas Wren is buried in the El Nido Cemetery, but all of -the tombstones, with one exception, have been destroyed.[14] Because -the name "Salona" appears on a legal document for the first time in -1823, the reported entry seems still more curious. It is possible -that Salona may have been built or at least designed by one of the -Wren family. Susannah Adams Wren, Richard's wife, was a descendant of -the Adams family which had a mill adjacent to the Salona tract, -another tie to the area.[15] - -Fairfax County tax records provide no clue to a possible date of -construction. In 1790, the Langley tract was carried on the rolls as -the property of the Ludwell Lee heirs and was so listed for more than -20 years. Only two significant changes appeared: one in 1792 when -more than 500 acres were sold, and again in 1811 after the sale of a -466-acre tract to Herbert. When William Maffitt first appeared on the -tax rolls as a landowner in 1813, the 466-acre tract was assessed at -$880 and his smaller tract at $79.[16] - -William Herbert, who took over the 466 acres in payment of judgments -against Richard Bland Lee, had no apparent intention of living on the -property or of keeping it. A house must have existed on the property -when he bought it because when he advertised the property for sale in -the _Alexandria Gazette_ in November 1811, the copy mentioned "a -comfortable dwelling house, and out houses, a young thriving orchard -of the choicest fruit, a good garden paled in, and a spring of fine -water that has never been known to fail in the driest season, near -the house." There is no indication that the acreage was under -cultivation at that time.[17] - -On March 10, 1812, the Reverend William Maffitt bought the 466-acre -tract from William Herbert. It was probably Maffitt who named the -estate "Salona." - - - Chapter I Notes - - Langley and the Lees - - [1] Fairfax Harrison, _Landmarks of Old Prince William_ (Berryville, -Va.: Reprint, Chesapeake Book Company, 1964), pp. 146-149. - - [2] Gardner Cazenove Lee, Jr., _Lee Chronicle_ (New York: New York -University Press, 1957), pp. 5-6, 55-68; Beth Mitchell, _Beginning at -a White Oak: Patents and Northern Neck Grants of Fairfax County_ -(Fairfax, Va.: Office of Comprehensive Planning, 1977), pp. 202-203. - - [3] Harrison, _Landmarks_, p. 149. - - [4] Lee, _Chronicle_, pp. 86-92; Edmund Jennings Lee, _Lee of -Virginia, 1642-1892_ (Philadelphia: By the author, 1895), pp. -165-167; April 19, 1782, Report of Appraisement and Division of -Philip Ludwell Lee's Estate, Westmoreland, Va. - - [5] Trevor N.

Supposedly, Maffitt built Salona in 1801. -Maffitt was from South Carolina. Maffitt went to Princeton. Maffitt -preached the funeral sermon for George Washington. Maffitt had a -boys' school at Salona. Maffitt lived at Salona with his wife -Harriotte Lee Turberville Maffitt, who deserted her three children by -her first marriage. Dolley Madison spent the night with the Maffitts -at Salona when she fled from the White House during the English -invasion of Washington. - -The available documents give a different picture. - -William Maffitt was born in Cecil County, Maryland, in 1769, eldest -son of Samuel and Ann Strawbridge Maffitt.[18] His father was a -justice of the peace, elder in the Presbyterian Church, owner of a -flourishing farm and a mill, and was a major under George Washington -during the American Revolution. - -The Rev. Mr. John H. Johns made his contribution to the Maffitt -legends: - - The Rev. William Maffit [sic] was a son of - Samuel Maffit, an elder of this church. - Having been licensed October 9th, 1794, by - New Castle Presbytery, he went, April 1st, - 1795, to Alexandria, Va., in Baltimore - Presbytery. He had delicate health, and was - pastor there for only a brief period, when - he went to Salina [sic] six miles from - Washington, and there became principal of a - school, which he continued to teach for many - years. He married twice, each time to a - widow Lee, of the noted Lee family of - Virginia. He died in 1828.[19] - -Although many young men of Cecil County attended Princeton, the -University does not have Maffitt recorded as a student, and his name -does not appear in the official list of early Princeton -graduates.[20] He probably attended some theological school because -on October 9, 1794, the New Castle Presbytery appointed him to supply -various New Castle Presbytery congregations.[21] At that time, he -seems to have been teaching at the Wilmington Academy.[22] - -On April 7, 1795, he was transferred to the Baltimore Presbytery, -with residence in Alexandria.[23] On April 14, 1795, he was hired by -the Alexandria Academy to teach Latin and English to 35 students for -the sum of 200 pounds a year.[24] - -In 1798, George Washington wrote regarding the education of Martha -Washington's grandson, George Washington Parke Custis: - - If he (Custis) was to go to Alexandria, his - Studies must be conducted at the Academy or - in his own chamber. The first, after coming - from a large and celebrated College, he - would consider as degrading, and in the - other case (being left alone) he would - attend very little to them while Mr. Moffet - was discharging the trust reposed in him at - the Academy.[25] - -An Alexandria historian, Mary Powell, wrote that: "The school was -attended by the best classes of Alexandria boys and able instruction -was given in the classics, history, and elocution." She also -observed: "The Rev. McWhirr and the Rev. Mr. Moffat were both -Presbyterian clergymen who taught during the lifetime of General -Washington. Mr. Leary succeeded Mr. Moffat ..."[26] - -In 1801 the _Alexandria Gazette_ reported that the trustees of the -Alexandria Academy: - - express their satisfaction at the progress - of every branch taught in the academy ... - reading and spelling; the accurate and - extensive knowledge of English grammar and - of the Latin classics, reflect the highest - honor on the capacity and diligence of Mr. - Maffitt, the teacher.[27] - -Maffitt remained at the Academy until 1804 when he notified the board -of trustees that he intended to "relinquish his situation as -principal" on June 8. No hint of his future plans was given.[28] - -At least as early as 1799, Maffitt became a member of Masonic Lodge -22[29] and took part in other community activities befitting a -schoolmaster and minister. On December 24, 1799, the _Alexandria -Gazette_ reported: - - Friday next being St. John's Day, Brother - Maffitt, at the request of Lodges 22 and 47, - will deliver a Charity Sermon at the - Presbyterian Meeting house at which all the - brethren are requested to attend. N.B. it is - expected that every brother will appear with - his badge of mourning--and those of Lodge 22 - in full mourning.[30] - -[Illustration: _A physiognotrace of "William Maffett, chaplain." -Courtesy of Alexandria-Washington Lodge No. 22, A. F. & A. M., -Alexandria, Virginia._] - -George Washington, a member of Lodge 22, had died on December 14, -1799, and the call was to a memorial service. Maffitt did not, as -legend claims, preach the funeral sermon, although he did march with -the clergy in the lodge's funeral procession from Alexandria to Mount -Vernon to attend the ceremony.[31] - -Earlier in 1799, the minutes of the General Assembly of the -Presbyterian Church show that Rev. William Maffitt was assigned to -Bladensburg.[32] There is no record of his actual presence there and -he was not re-assigned.[33] For the rest of his life, his listings in -the minutes show him "without charge." Although Maffitt was a -licensed minister, there is some doubt that he was ever ordained.[34] - -On January 14, 1800, the subscribers to the establishment of a -Washington Society met at Gadsby's Tavern and William Maffitt was -named to the committee to form the constitution and by-laws.[35] On -January 28, Maffitt was appointed chaplain of the society,[36] a post -which he held at least through 1803. On February 23, 1800, the -society was called to meet at Gadsby's at 10 a.m. "to move in -procession to the Presbyterian Meeting House where an oration will be -delivered by the Rev. Mr. Maffitt, commemorative of the distinguished -merits of the Illustrious Washington."[37] Again, on February 22, -1803, the Washington Society called on Maffitt to deliver a memorial -sermon on the first president "at the Presbyterian Church at 12 -o'clock. There will be instrumental and vocal music and the day will -be announced by a discharge of 16 rounds from the Market Square."[38] - -On February 18, 1801, the Rev. Mr. Maffitt was elected a director of -the Alexandria Library Co., and was re-elected to this post in 1802, -1803, and 1804.[39] - -On May 5, 1803, the Rev. Dr. Muir, pastor of the Presbyterian Meeting -House, married the Rev. William Maffitt to Mrs. Harriotte -Turberville.[40] Harriotte (or Henrietta) was the daughter of Richard -Henry Lee, a brother of Philip Ludwell Lee, and his second wife, Anne -Gaskins Pinckard, widow of Thomas Pinckard. Harriotte was born -December 10, 1773 at Chantilly, the Richard Henry Lee estate in -Westmoreland County.[41] Her siblings included a younger sister Sarah -who married another cousin, Edmund Jennings Lee, and the youngest -son, Francis Lightfoot Lee.[42] Her first marriage in December, 1794, -was to Richard Lee Turberville, a cousin and neighbor, who died in -1799,[43] leaving his widow with their three children: Cornelia, -Richard, and George. Richard and Harriotte Turberville had settled at -Chantilly in Fairfax County and Richard apparently died there.[44] - -When Harriotte and William Maffitt were married, he was still -principal of the Alexandria Academy, living in Alexandria, and active -in community affairs. But between June 8, 1804, the date of Maffitt's -resignation from the Academy, and early 1805, he moved to Chantilly -with his wife, their first child, and the three children of -Harriotte's first marriage. It is probable that the move took place -in 1804, soon after his resignation. - -Legal guardian of the three Turberville children was Thomas Lee, -Harriotte's oldest brother.[45] After his death in 1805, William -Maffitt was named guardian.[46] In this capacity he had to keep -accurate accounts of his expenditures on behalf of the children and -of income received on their property, all of which were matters of -court record. These records indicate that Maffitt was living at -Chantilly at that time. - -William and Harriotte had two daughters, both christened in the -Presbyterian Meeting House: Ann Lee, born March 23, 1804, and -christened on April 20, and Harriotte, born March 16, 1805, and -christened on April 17, 1805.[47] Harriotte died right after the -birth of the second daughter, probably on April 11 or 12, 1805, -because on April 12, Maffitt began paying rent to the three -Turberville heirs for the use of their property. This was recorded -for the first time in his accounts for 1805.[48] - -That he had a school on the Chantilly estate seems highly probable, -because starting in 1805, he charged the two Turberville boys for -board and tuition, but not for transportation.[49] In 1805, Maffitt -was listed for the first time on the Fairfax County personal property -tax rolls.[50] In 1810, the county census listed him as having under -his roof two males under 10, five males between 10 and 16, one male -between 26 and 45, five females under 10, and one female between 26 -and 45.[51] - -The guardian accounts give some interesting insights into day-by-day -activities. Buying new shoes and mending old ones for the two boys -were constant expenses. Regular sums of money were sent to Mrs. Lee, -Harriotte's sister Sally, to pay for Cornelia Turberville's board, -education, and small purchases. Books and supplies were bought for -the boys. A large portion of the estate was rented out, and so were -some of the slaves. The chimney and cellar were repaired; a new barn -was built.[52] - -The accounts also show that Cornelia Turberville was married to -Charles C. Stuart in 1817, rather than 1814, as some sources report. -Up to the time of the marriage, Maffitt referred to Cornelia as "C. -Turberville"; afterwards he formally termed her "Mistress Stuart." He -also listed money given George Turberville to buy articles to attend -his sister's wedding.[53] Historians credit Cornelia and her husband -with building a house named "Chantilly" in honor of the estate of her -grandfather, Richard Henry Lee, in Westmoreland County.[54] Yet the -Maffitt accounts specifically refer to "my rent of Chantilly" in -1814,[55] three years before the Turberville-Stuart marriage. -Moreover, a public sale was held "at Chantilly" in 1817,[56] with -cash paid to C. C. Stuart from its proceeds.[57] - -Curiously, the accounts show that Maffitt continued to pay rent to -the Turberville heirs through 1814, the year when, for the first -time, we definitely know he was living at Salona. Does this mean that -Maffitt himself built Salona between 1812, when he purchased the -property, and 1814, or that the house already existed and was rented -to a tenant through the first part of 1814? That Maffitt was there in -August 1814 is proven by the documented fact that President Madison -stayed at Salona overnight with Mr. Maffitt. - -Robert Gamble, in his volume on Sully, quotes a letter which states -that Richard Bland Lee, Jr., was under the tutelage of the Reverend -Mr. Maffitt at some time preceding 1805.[58] This again would suggest -that Maffitt had a school at Chantilly, close to Richard Bland Lee's -home at Sully. Another biographer mentions that - - Edmund Jennings (Lee) was born at - Alexandria, then in the District of - Columbia, on the 3rd of May, 1797.... Mr. - Lee received his earliest educational - training at the school of the Rev. Mr. - Maffitt in Fairfax, a school of high repute - at that day.[59] - -Unfortunately no dates or locations are given by the letter-writer or -the biographer. - -In his history of the Old Presbyterian Meeting House, William B. -McGroarty described Maffitt in a footnote as "a Presbyterian minister -who conducted a school for boys in Fairfax County near -Alexandria."[60] Neither Chantilly nor Salona was very close to -Alexandria. - -A letter from A. C. Stuart to Elizabeth Collins Lee in 1805 states -that: - - Mr. Maffitt intended to leave the place - where he now resides and purchase a small - farm, that he, Frank (Francis Lightfoot Lee, - Harriotte's youngest brother) intended to do - the same, that they were to spend their time - in the pursuit of agriculture, botany, and - philosophy.[61] - -Was this wish expressed because Chantilly was not Maffitt's property -but that of his stepchildren, because Maffitt was lonely without -Harriotte, or because he wanted to give up teaching for farming? -Somehow, from the guardianship accounts, it seems likely that Maffitt -did not farm the Turberville acres, but rented out whatever he could, -while he busied himself otherwise. - -Usually the _Alexandria Gazette_ carried announcements of the -openings of new schools, but no announcement of Maffitt's school ever -seems to have appeared. Because Maffitt performed the marriage of -_Gazette_ publisher Samuel Snowden to Mary Longden on January 8, -1802,[62] such an announcement might have been expected. Neither did -the _Gazette_ report Maffitt's departure from the Alexandria area. - -Probably Maffitt was still living at Chantilly when he married for -the second time between 1807 and 1811 before William Maffitt, Jr., -was born. His second wife was Ann Beale Carter Carter -(1767-1852),[63] widow of Charles B. Carter. Ann, also known as -Nancy, was the daughter of Robert Wormely Carter of Sabine Hall in -Richmond County, and Winifred Beale.[64] William, Jr., the only child -of this marriage, was born in November, 1811, and christened in the -Presbyterian Meeting House in February 1812.[65] - -In August 1812, Maffitt was appointed a trustee of an academy to be -established in Haymarket. Among those serving with him were Ludwell -Lee of Belmont, Francis Lightfoot Lee, then living at Sully, and -William Fitzhugh of Ravensworth.[66] - -Meanwhile, in 1809, James Madison, Secretary of State under Thomas -Jefferson, had been elected President. On June 18, 1812, Madison -signed a declaration of war against England. The causes of the war, -sometimes called the Second War of Independence, were basically -several aspects of nationalism. Some resentment against the British -still smouldered, fanned by British contempt and condescension toward -her former colonists. Because many English sailors deserted their -ships to sail under American colors, British ships intercepted -American vessels and "impressed" their seamen. Furthermore, many -American politicians wanted to annex Canada. - -Neither the war nor the President was popular with the people, who -thought the President weak and called the conflict "Mr. Madison's -War." Attempted American invasion of Canada was a fiasco and by -August 23, 1814, the British forces were so close to Washington that -the clear and present danger of an actual invasion of the American -capital seemed imminent. - -John Graham, Chief Clerk in the Department of State, and two other -clerks, Stephen Pleasanton and Josiah King, packed the valuable -public records of the State Department in coarse linen bags which -Pleasanton had purchased earlier. These included the original -Declaration of Independence, articles of confederation, federal -constitution, treaties and laws and many other papers. Stephen -Pleasanton found conveyances, loaded the bags into them and took them -to a mill 3 miles beyond Georgetown, where they were concealed. -Pleasanton spent the night of August 23, 1814, at Salona with the -Rev. Mr. Maffitt. The next day, fearing that the mill might be too -accessible to the British, who were fast approaching Washington, -Pleasanton took the state papers to Leesburg for safety.[67] - -Dolley Madison, the President's popular wife, could hear in the -President's House the sounds of cannon "from a skirmish at -Bladensburg." The President had gone to meet Gen. William H. Winder, -commander of the military district, and had left his wife -instructions to "take care of my self, and of the cabinet paper, -public and private."[68] - -Writing to her sister, Lucy Todd, Dolley cooly reported that her -husband - - desires that I should be ready at a moment's - warning to enter my carriage and leave the - city.... I am accordingly ready; I have - pressed as many cabinet papers into trunks - to fill one carriage; our private property - must be sacrificed, as it is impossible to - procure wagons for its transportation.[69] - -She continued the letter on Wednesday, August 24: - - Two messengers, covered with dust, come to - bid me fly.... At this late hour, a wagon - has been procured; I have had it filled with - the plate and most valuable articles - belonging to the house.... - - Our kind friend, Mr. Carroll, has come to - hasten my departure, and is in a very mad - humor because I insist on waiting until the - large picture of Gen. Washington is secured, - and it requires to be unscrewed from the - wall. The process was found too tedious for - these perilous moments; I have ordered the - frame to be broken, and the canvas taken out; - it is done--and the precious portrait placed - in the hands of two gentlemen of New York, - for safekeeping.... When I shall again write - to you, or where I shall be tomorrow, I - cannot tell!![70] - -Apparently Dolley spent the night of August 24 in a tent in the -American encampment at Tennallytown, and the next day crossed over -into Virginia where she spent the night of August 25 with Matilda Lee -Love at Rokeby. The roads were crowded with refugees and the exodus -was slow. As the Loves had often been guests at the President's -House, Dolley did not have to spend night with strangers. In her -reminiscences, Matilda Love wrote: - - In the following spring of 1814, it (the - war) came more home to us, as the British - got into our southern waters, and in August - came up to Washington and burnt all the - public buildings.... As I lived about ten - miles from Washington, Mrs. Madison and a - number of city people took refuge at my home - the night the British took Washington.... - - -They watched the flames of the burning capital from Rokeby that -night.[71] - -Irving Brant, definitive biographer of Madison, writes of the -departure of the Madisons from the capital: - - The travels of President and Mrs. Madison - after the battle have long been involved in - obscurity and contradiction owing to the - meagerness of early records (Dolley's - letters about it were eaten by mice), - uncertain memories and the derogatory - stories circulated by political detractors. - The facts bear little resemblance to the - popular stories in which the Jones and - Carroll families are nonexistent, Dolley - wanders forlornly from house to house, while - Madison, split in person rather than - personality, simultaneously hides in a - miserable hovel in the Virginia woods and - flees in terror into the distant hills of - Maryland. - - Actually, a clear record was left by - participants and observers. The original plan - was for Madison to join Secretary Jones and - their families at Bellevue and proceed by way - of the Little Falls bridge to Wiley's Tavern - on Difficult Run near the Great Falls. From - there the President and cabinet members would - cross the Potomac and join the army. Time - growing short, Madison changed the rendezvous - to Foxall's Foundry. With that route from the - White House clogged by the militia's flight, - he sent Tench Ringgold to the foundry with - word that he was crossing at Mason's Ferry - and would meet his wife and party at Salona, - the home of the Reverend John [sic] Maffitt, - three miles above the Little Falls - bridge....[72] - - Madison, Rush and Mason rode to Wren's Tavern - at Falls Church. Monroe and Ringgold took the - Leesburg road, stopped briefly at Rokeby, the - home of Richard Henry Love, two miles above - Little Falls, and went on to Wiley's Tavern. - From Wren's Tavern the President went to the - Minor home and from there to Salona, where he - spent the night with the Maffitts. But Mrs. - Madison failed to come. She and her party had - stopped only a mile away at Rokeby, with her - young friend Matilda Lee Love, an occasional - overnight guest at the White House.... - - The next morning, Madison went back to Wren's - Tavern--looking for his wife, he told Colonel - George Graham, who gave him a guard of two - dragoons. Returning to Salona, the President - learned that Mrs. Madison and the Jones and - Carroll families had gone by on their way to - Wiley's Tavern. He and Rush followed along - the Old Dominion Road (Mason being detained - for a time) and took refuge from the - hurricane in a house at "The Crossroads" five - miles from the Little Falls bridge.[73] - -At midnight, the President went to the new Conn's Ferry above Great -Falls, and at daybreak he crossed the river into Montgomery County, -Maryland. Mrs. Madison stayed at Wiley's Tavern until the President -sent her word that Washington was clear of the enemy.[74] - -A more romantic but apocryphal story of the Madison's flight from -Washington was written in 1914 by a columnist known as "The Rambler" -for the _Washington Star_.[75] In this version, Dolley crossed the -Potomac on "the Causeway Ferry," then passed Nelson's mill, went on -to Falls Church, and finally drove up "to Salona Hall, the home of -Parson Maffitt, and was welcomed by Mrs. Maffitt." He further -recounts that Mrs. Madison was refused shelter at two country places -before she reached Salona, though this did not seem reasonable.[76] - -The oft-told story of Dolley Madison's having been refused sanctuary -on her way to Salona by several households is not borne out by all -published accounts. Apparently, the account which does have most -corroboration is that regarding the day following the night she and -her party stayed at Rokeby. - -Mrs. Madison went on the next morning, August 25, to meet her husband -at a tavern near Great Falls, probably Wiley's on Difficult Run. This -had been prearranged, and on arrival she went upstairs to wait for -Mr. Madison. Shortly, the lady of the establishment called out to her -in rage, saying, "Miss Madison! If that's you, come down and go out! -Your husband has got mine out fighting, and d---- you, you shan't -stay in my house; so get out!" Other refugees joined in the outburst, -even those who had once been guests of the Madisons at the -President's mansion, and agreed she should be expelled from all -doors. Nearby, there was another tavern, and Mrs. Madison and her -party gained admittance there to wait for her husband's arrival later -that evening.[77] - -After the excitement of Madison's visit was over, Salona must have -reverted to its normal calm. At last Maffitt had realized his dream -of farming; the personal property tax records and inventory of his -estate clearly define Salona as a working farm. - -But his fortunes declined, if we can judge by his personal property -tax assessments. Maffitt was assessed for 18 horses and mules and 21 -black slaves in 1812; in 1814, when a very detailed account was -rendered by the county, Maffitt was shown to have 19 slaves, 12 -horses and mules and a coache (4-wheeled carriage) valued at $450. In -all of Fairfax County that year, only Thomas Fairfax, William -Robinson and Bushrod Washington had coaches of higher value than his -and their vehicles were evaluated at $500 each. - -By the year of his death, 1828, only 13 slaves and 3 horses were -listed, and the total evaluation of his personal property was listed -at $150. The inventory of William Maffitt's estate did show that he -had 116 head of livestock on the place including horses, oxen, sheep, -hogs and cattle. He was growing turnips, corn, rye, oats, hay and -orchard grass. The long list of household furnishings included three -desks and two bookcases of high evaluation, indicating there were -books in them. (See appendix for full inventory.) The fortunes of his -widow, Ann Carter Maffitt, declined further, until by 1835, she was -dropped off the county's personal property tax rolls.[78] - -For many years, William Maffitt had continued to serve as guardian to -his first wife's Turberville children. Although Cornelia Turberville -continued to live with her aunt in Alexandria until her marriage in -1817, her two brothers seem to have lived at Salona. In June 1815, -Richard Turberville drowned in the Potomac while visiting his cousin -Matilda Lee Love at nearby Rokeby.[79] Maffitt's accounts for June -23, 1815, report the expenditure of $37.50 for Richard's coffin. He -may have been buried in the graveyard on the Salona property.[80] - -The other brother, George Turberville, at some time in childhood -became a deaf mute as the result of typhoid fever. Maffitt's accounts -do not reveal the date of the onset of this affliction, but they do -show that in April 1818 George entered "The Asylum" in Hartford, -Connecticut. At that time, Maffitt advanced George $100 for board and -tuition and $100 for travel.[81] George still returned to Salona for -vacations, because in July 1819, Harriotte Maffitt wrote to him: - - It is now my time to write to you my Dear - Brother. We are glad the time is so near - when we expect you. When you come home we - will go to George Town to meet you. Dr. Muir - has been here and he preached here. Aunt - Whann and Aunt Sally Maffitt have been here. - Uncle Whann has gone to travel. I hope you - will be well acquainted with the History of - the Bible and particularly the life and - miracles of our Blessed Saviour. We have not - heard from Chantilly for some time, I hope - we will go up soon. Cousin Sally Lee is - there. We expect Aunt Edmund Lee will come - here very soon. Sister Cornelia expects Mrs. - Mary Tollaver, your Cousin up to see her - this summer. Do you know Mr. Harrison of - Alexandria? He is coming here to preach for - us in August. Do you love me? I pray to God - to bless and preserve you. Old Mrs. Randle - is very well we went to see her yesterday. - When you come home you must go to see her - with us. I saw Miss Betty Jones last - Sabbathe. She asked me when I had heard from - you answer my letter very soon if you - please. Tell me how the deaf and dumb are - and if they improve. You must love and obey - your teachers. Papa Mama and all the girls - send their affectionate love to you. - - I am your affectionate sister. - - Harriotte Maffitt.[82] - - - P.S. - All the Boys send their - respects to you. - -Another letter, this one from William C. Woodbridge to the Reverend -William Maffitt from "Asylum," was dated February 21, 1820, and -referred to a fight between George Turberville and another student. -Woodbridge wrote: - - It seems he was ridiculed & resented it & - was then challenged. He says he was wounded - in the knee & his antagonist the same. We - learned it from his boasting of it to our - pupils. He now expresses entire - disapprobation. He made the question to you - by my request. - -Woodbridge refers to George's independence and pride which must be -checked. Obviously, this letter was one of many exchanged between -Woodbridge and Maffitt regarding George's progress[83] and is -evidence that George wrote home to his stepfather as well as to his -sisters. - -Although William Maffitt died before the Lewinsville Presbyterian -Church was founded, church historians claim him as a founding father, -saying that he was appointed by the Washington Presbytery to preach -and set up a mission near Langley.[84] Harriotte's letter may lend -credence to this, although there is no report of such an assignment -in the Minutes which list Maffitt only as "without charge" after -1800.[85] - -One reason for this belief may have arisen because of a bequest in -the will of Elizabeth Lee Jones, the "Miss Betty Jones" of -Harriotte's letter. Daughter of Lettice Corbin Turberville and -Catesby Jones of Westmoreland County, Miss Betty lived at "Sharon" on -part of the George Turberville grant. Her will, dated April 16, 1822, -left four acres of her property "as a site for a church and -churchyard ... dedicated to the uses and purposes of divine worship -in such manner and subject to such rules as shall ... be prescribed -by the Rev'd William Maffitt" and eight other ministers: -- Carnahan, -Wells Andrews, William Hill, John Mathews, J. B. Hoge, William C. -Walton, M. Baker, and Samuel D. Hoge, all representatives of the -Presbyterian Church. William Maffitt was a witness to this will. -Apparently, this was Maffitt's primary connection with the -establishment of the Presbyterian Church at Lewinsville.[86] - - - Chapter II Notes - - Salona and the Maffitts - - [18] Handwritten family tree, source unknown, in possession of Henry -Mackall, Fairfax, Virginia; interviews with Peter Maffitt, direct -descendant of William Maffitt, by the author. - - [19] John H.

Peter -Maffitt also investigated and reported that William had not attended -the university. Founded in 1746 as the College of New Jersey, -Princeton did not have a theological school, as such, until 1812. -Because a persistent legend links Maffitt with South Carolina, the -author checked his possible attendance at the College of Charleston, -S.C. Surviving enrollment records beginning in 1790 (the college was -founded in 1770) show no William Maffitt.

Powell, _History of Old Alexandria, Va._ (Richmond, Va.: -William Byrd Press, 1928), p. 155. According to A. J. Morrison in -_The Beginnings of Public Education in Virginia, 1776-1860_ -(Richmond, Va.: Virginia State Board of Education, 1917), while the -Alexandria Academy was incorporated in 1786 with George Washington as -one of the trustees, the school seemingly predated its incorporation. - - [27] _Alexandria Gazette_, November 4, 1801. - - [28] Board of Trustees, Alexandria Academy, Minutes, March, 1804. - - [29] This is evident only through announcements in the _Alexandria -Gazette_, and not in lodge records, although Maffitt's likeness, a -Raphael Peale physiognotrace, is displayed in the Lodge 22 -headquarters now located in the George Washington Masonic Memorial in -Alexandria and is reproduced in this monograph. Lodge records list -Maffitt in 1804 as chaplain, but no other records show even the dates -of his initiation or transfer affiliation. F. L. Brockett, _The Lodge -of Washington_ (Alexandria, Va.: George E. French, c. 1875) wrote -profiles of 34 members of the lodge as of 1814, but these do not -include Maffitt. However, Brockett reported that in 1799 Maffitt's -charity sermon brought in a collection of $74.52, and his sermon of -1805, $91.67. "Charity sermons were preached on St. John's Day, -December 27, and the collection was used to assist the poor." - - [30] _Alexandria Gazette_, December 24, 1799. - - [31] The Reverend Thomas Davis, Rector of Christ Church, Alexandria, -preached the funeral sermon at Mount Vernon. The Reverend James Muir, -pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Alexandria, and Dr. Addison, an -Episcopal clergyman from Maryland, also attended the service. Charles -W.

The preceding year, Maffitt was -listed simply as "licentiate." - - [33] Ibid., Minutes, 1800, p. 192. This year, and in succeeding -years, Maffitt is listed as "without charge." He did, however, carry -out various pastoral duties. In 1802, at the ordination of James -Inglis in the Presbyterian Meeting House, Maffitt "concluded the -services, after having exhorted the newly ordained pastor and the -people of his charge, in a short but impressive address," according -to the _Alexandria Gazette_ of April 30, 1802. - -In May, 1808, Maffitt was a commissioner to the general assembly of -the Presbyterian Church at its meeting in Baltimore, along with -Reverend James Inglis. He was late in arriving and "took his seat the -4th day of the sessions." The minutes of May 23 (p. 399) report that - - The Reverend William Maffitt, of the - Presbytery of Baltimore, appeared in the - Assembly and stated that he had neglected to - bring his commission. Two commissioners from - the same Presbytery certified that Mr. - Maffitt had been appointed by the Presbytery - as commissioner to this Assembly. On motion: - _Resolved_, that Mr. Maffitt be received as - a member. And he accordingly took his seat. - - - [34] Letter to the author from Ruth B. Lee, librarian of the -Historical Foundation of the Presbyterian and Reformed Church, -Montreat, N.C., dated March 29, 1977: - - As you will see the first reference to Mr. - Maffitt is as a licentiate in Baltimore - Presbytery. His only pastorate seems to have - been in Bladensburg (later Hyattsville), and - after this he is listed as being without - charge. This means that he was not an active - pastor in a church. He seems to have - remained in Baltimore Presbytery, though of - course he may have served outside the - Presbytery at some time and still remained a - member of that Presbytery. I question - whether he was actually ordained by - Newcastle Presbytery, since the ordination - usually took place when a man was installed - as the pastor of a church. The licentiate is - the candidate for the ministry who is - licensed to preach but is not yet ordained. - - -Minutes for 1809 (p. 238) and 1814 (p. 184) show Maffitt "without -charge." Minutes for 1824 list him in the Presbytery of the District -of Columbia as "near Georgetown, D.C." again without charge.

She had to keep up the farm, care for the slaves, and -support her children and stepchildren. There was an outstanding debt -on Salona owed to her sister-in-law in Georgetown. William Maffitt -had mortgaged the property with Margaret Whann for $6,000 in 1823, -and had paid back almost half of the amount due prior to his -death.[87] - -Ann Maffitt's state of mind was clearly revealed in a letter written -by her on July 22, 1828, to Col. George W. Hunter urging him to -reconsider his refusal to become administrator of her husband's -estate. She pleaded with him: "... I shall send my dear fatherless -(and I might almost add) friendless Son to you this morning who will -say everything he can to beg you not to desert us in our great time -of need...."[88] - -[Illustration: _Dr. William Maffitt, Jr., Major, U. S. Army. Born -November 14, 1811, in Virginia. Died October 7, 1864, St. Louis, -Missouri. He was Reverend William Maffitt's only son._] - -Apparently her appeal fell on deaf ears, for the court records show -that Robert C. Jackson was administrator. Margaret Whann brought a -chancery suit against the heirs of Maffitt in 1831 and bought Salona -at auction through her agent, Joseph McVean, for $2,650, only partial -repayment of the $3,716.54 still due her. Meanwhile, slaves and -personal property were sold, and small debts repaid. George W. -Hunter, the lawyer who had refused to serve as administrator, came to -a sale on May 20, 1829. John Hill Carter (Ann's son by her first -marriage), E. L. Carter (probably her youngest daughter, Elizabeth), -Thomas B. Balch (husband of her daughter Susan), Commodore Thomas ap -Catesby Jones (a close neighbor), and George L. Turberville -(Harriotte's son by her first marriage) all bought some of the slaves -and personal property. When the property evaluation was made, the -estate was worth $1,822.87-1/2. The inventory of Maffitt's personal -property, exclusive of his slaves, was $1,588.89-1/2. No total was -given for the value of the slaves. The court-appointed appraisers -were Nicholas Paine, William Swink, and Joseph Sewell. Although they -prepared their inventory in 1828, it was not reviewed and accepted by -the court until March, 1832.[89] - -Margaret Maffitt had been born in Cecil County, Maryland, on April 7, -1780. According to Sarah Somervell Mackall, Margaret went to -Georgetown to visit her eldest sister Jane, wife of William Whann. -While there, Margaret met William's brother, David Whann, and they -were married on November 16, 1807. Until 1804, David had been a -purser in the U. S. Navy on the _Essex_. Later he became a paymaster -and traveled widely abroad. A captain in the D.C. Militia, he died of -sunstroke in May, 1813, while reviewing his men on the parade ground. -His widow "never received any compensation from the government" and -was left with two small children, a son and a daughter.[90] - -Apparently Margaret permitted Ann Maffitt to remain at Salona until -1835 at least and possibly until 1842 when the property was sold to -Chapman Lee. In any case, Ann Maffitt and the three Maffitt children -did not sign a quitclaim to the property until 1835.[91] Margaret -Whann probably hired a tenant to maintain Salona as a working farm. -There are no indications that Mrs. Whann ever lived at Salona; the -deed to Lee refers to her as being "of Georgetown in the District of -Columbia." - -Chapman Lee, who was living in Alexandria at the time of the sale, -bought the property in 1842.[92] He held the property for three -years, then divided it and sold 208 acres to Elisha Sherman "late of -Fairfield County, Connecticut."[93] The balance was conveyed to James -McVean and Samuel M. Whann. Eight years later, Elisha Sherman and -Anna, his wife, late of Fairfax County and "now of Washington County, -D.C.," sold to Jacob G. Smoot of Georgetown the tract "heretofore -called Langley but now called Salona"--208 acres.[94] - -[Illustration: _The Maffitt grave is located in the Lewinsville -Presbyterian Church cemetery, McLean.

Some family members migrated to -Kentucky, others to Washington, D.C.[99] - -Although Jacob Gilliam Smoot of Georgetown, D.C., purchased 208 acres -of property--Salona--in 1853, he also held property on High Street -(now Wisconsin Avenue) in Georgetown from which he probably obtained -income. His family spent winters in Georgetown. Smoot had attended -Charlotte Hall Academy in Maryland and his son William was a -graduate, in law, from Georgetown.[100] The Salona property was of a -size and assessed valuation consistently greater than over half of -the properties assessed in Fairfax County at the time. Smoot's -personal property including several slaves, was also well above -average in quantity and evaluation.[101] - -Sometime following Smoot's purchase of Salona, he bought two prize -hunting dogs for a total of $5,000. The dogs later died from rabies. -Smoot was interested in establishing a good herd of cattle so he -purchased expensive registered Aberdeen Angus cattle prior to the -Civil War. During the war, the cattle were appropriated and eaten by -Union troops.[102] There were 50 cattle listed in the tax assessment -in 1857, but the herd had dropped to 12 by 1860. In that year, Smoot -was also assessed for 20 sheep and hogs. Gold, plate, silver, -jewelry, kitchen and house furnishings were evaluated at $500, far -above the average that year in Fairfax County.[103] The Smoots were a -relatively well-to-do family. - -[Illustration: _The caption under this photograph reads: "The Battle -Hymn of the Republic--'A Hundred Circling Camps.' The Fifth Vermont -in 1861, with their Colonel L. A. Grant." From _The Photographic -History of the Civil War In Ten Volumes_, pp. 154-155. The rock -formation in the lower right hand corner can still be seen on Kurtz -Road near Salona._] - -[Illustration: _The McDowell map of northeastern Virginia, 1862, -showing the section including Fort Marcy, Langley, Lewinsville and -the Smoot's "Salona" property._] - -From October, 1861, to April, 1862, according to a strong Smoot -family tradition, Salona was used as the headquarters of the Army of -the Potomac. Camp Griffin, in fact, was an installation partly on -Salona and partly on adjoining farms and was part of the outer -defenses of Washington. General George McClellan's dispatches, -however, never used either Salona or Smoot's Hill as a source, -although he did use datelines of Fairfax Court House and Camp -Griffin. Military historians generally agree that McClellan was -living in Washington, D.C., at the time, and, therefore, as -commanding general, his residence would have been considered the -headquarters.[104] - -It is certain that troops were camped there and that there was -skirmishing in the immediate vicinity of Salona. The following -incident was recorded by E. M. Woodward, adjutant in the Second -Pennsylvania Reserves: - - Early on the morning of the 9th (October - 1861) General Smith advanced his division - from the neighborhood of Chain Bridge to - Langley where deploying his skirmishers, he - pushed forward a brigade on the Dranesville - Pike, and took possession of Prospect Hill. - With his main body he diverged from the pike - at Langley to the left, advancing toward - Lewinsville, which village he entered and - occupied without opposition, leaving the - main portion of his troops at Smoot's Hill - and pushing on a detachment to occupy - Miner's Hill.... - - During the first ten days, the "long roll" - was beaten and the men got under arms five - times. On the night of the 11th the pickets - in the neighborhood of Lewinsville were - driven in and the next day the enemy - consisting of at least three regiments of - infantry, some cavalry and a battery of six - guns were discovered near Miner's Hill, - concealed in the woods, which led to the - supposition that an attack was meditated the - next morning. At noon the drums beat and the - men got into fighting order. General - McClellan and staff including the Comte de - Paris and the Duc de Chartres rode over and - remained during the night at Smoot's House, - and at midnight the drums beat again and - every preparation was made for an attack. - - It was a clear and beautiful night, the moon - shone forth in its mild beauty, the stars - twinkled with resplendant glory and not a - cloud glided through the sky. The drums beat - the long roll, the trumpets of cavalry and - artillery sounded their shrill blasts and the - bands of the infantry pealed forth their most - soul-stirring strains. The camp-fires burned - brightly, the glittering bayonets and sabres - flashed in the light and every heart beat - high with hope.... But alas, after remaining - in position until daybreak, chilled with - falling dews, the boys were doomed to - disappointment. Beauregard had only been in a - reconnaissance in force, to ascertain our - position since the recent extension of our - front.[105] - -When the federal troops moved out of the encampment in March, 1862, -Captain W. A. Hawley and Lt. Col. W. B. Hazmand of the 102^d New York -Volunteer Battalion signed the following memorandum giving all army -materials left behind to Jacob Smoot:[106] - -[Illustration: _Original memorandum in the possession of Clive and -Susan DuVal, Salona._] - -The Smoots spent most of the war in Georgetown, returning at the end -in time to save some furniture and the main part of the house from -being burned. Both wings of the house, the garden and many fine trees -had been destroyed in their absence. They had filed petitions during -the war asking the federal government for compensation for their -losses. When federal troops had occupied Salona, Smoot had taken -eight slaves to Georgetown where his brother John was in the drygoods -business. During the investigation of his reparations claim it was -discovered that J. G. Smoot had signed the Ordinance of Secession in -the Lewinsville Precinct in Fairfax County on May 23, 1861. This act -disqualified him from receiving compensation.[107] - -Following the war, the Smoots set about the arduous task of restoring -their farm to its former prosperity. By 1868, the aggregate value of -personal property at Salona was $1,085, and in that year, only one in -15 taxpayers in the county had a personal property tax evaluation of -over $1,000. A rosewood piano made its appearance, followed the next -year by the addition of a "pleasure carriage" and a watch.[108] In -1870, books and pictures owned by Smoot were valued at $25.00--the -vast majority of taxpayers had none assessed at all. By 1881, there -were four conveyances, 10 horses, 10 cattle, 15 sheep, books valued -at $50.00, two watches and two clocks. One of the clocks was probably -the chiming grandfather's clock made in Newburyport, Massachusetts, -which was built about 1817 and is still in the family.[109] A sewing -machine was also listed. It is interesting to note that by 1881, at -least half of the households in Fairfax County had such a -machine.[110] - -Salona was a working farm with a large barn, smokehouse, ice pond, -and cabinetshop. Hogs, sheep, cattle and fowl were raised as well as -wheat and corn. The old stone house, thought by the family to have -been the oldest structure on the place, was surrounded by a peach -orchard. The Smoots grew scuppernong grapes, plums and apricots. -Italian grape vines adorned the arbor between the house and the brick -privy. Descendants say that the farm had a consistently high yield -per acre of corn and wheat, and that this information was faithfully -recorded in account books which were destroyed when the attic was -cleaned out or taken by vandals and lost.[111] But records in -gazetteers listed J. G. and William Smoot as principal farmers in the -Langley area for a period of more than 20 years.[112] - -[Illustration: _Smoot family photographs, late 1800s._] - -[Illustration: _This mahogany Sheraton writing cabinet was obtained -from England by the Kurtz importing firm in Georgetown, and was used -for many years by the Smoots at Salona._] - -[Illustration: _These wine glass coolers are of deep blue glass with -lips on opposite sides.

He was -survived by his widow Harriet and their four children, William S., -Helen M., Harriet E., and Catherine C. After his widow died, each of -the children received one-fourth of the estate. Even before Jacob's -death, William Smoot, Sr., had taken over management of the farm -while his unmarried sisters kept house. Each of the sisters took one -of William's sons to raise. Jennie, William's wife, according to the -Smoot descendants, acted as hostess, greeting visitors and -entertaining them. Their son John moved to Georgetown; William Jr., -went to Waterford to be the miller there; Gilliam stayed with his -parents and gradually took over the farm operations. Life at Salona -went on as usual, with no question of selling the farm or dividing -its acreage. - -William S. Smoot, Sr., died in 1900 leaving his share of Salona by -will to his widow, Jennie K. Smoot. When she in turn died intestate, -their three children, John D. K., Calder Gilliam, and William S., -Jr., shared her portion of the estate. Jacob's three daughters never -married, so their portions descended to their three nephews, -William's sons, John, Calder Gilliam (known by the family as -Gilliam), and William, Jr. - -Both John and William died intestate. John's share of Salona was -divided among his widow, Julia B., and their children, Jane Smoot -Wilson, John D. K. Smoot, Jr., and Henry B. Smoot. William's share -went to his widow, Elizabeth, and their two sons, William S., III, -and John J.[113] - -[Illustration: _"Salona," from an unpublished picture taken by "The -Rambler," about 1914. See_ Sunday Star_, "The Rambler," August 2, -1914._] - -In 1914, The Rambler, a Washington Star columnist, visited Salona, -talked with the Smoots, and wrote a charming word picture of the -exterior of the house: - - You draw up in front of the garden which - surrounds the house. A white-washed fence - four boards high, incloses the garden. - Inside are old cedars thick through the - trunk and solemn in foliage. There are - clumps of rose bushes and borders of - jonquils. Stumps of trees that have been - wrecked by wind or lightning support - bark-bound flower boxes. A driveway curves - to the left and a gravel path leads straight - to the front porch before which the box - trees are growing. The porch is capacious - with a balcony on top. Under the porch and - in the middle of the house is an arched - doorway. On the left of the garden around - the house is an apple orchard and on the - right is a flourishing grape arbor. This is - Salona. It is a fine, quiet and dignified - old place.[114] - -Some years later, in 1932, for the first time in history (as far as -it is known) Salona was open to view by the general public. It was -one of the occasions in local observance of the George Washington -Bicentennial Birthday Anniversary. Mrs. John Kurtz Smoot was the -official hostess and she and her house tour guides were dressed in -floor-length period costumes.[115] - -World War II brought the end of the estate as a family farm. Gilliam -was growing older and was suffering from arthritis; help was almost -impossible to find. Unable to carry on with farming, Gilliam rented -the land to the Carper family as pasture and moved from the mansion -into a smaller house nearby. A family of Negro caretakers moved into -Salona for a time. After the Carper lease expired without renewal, -the caretakers left. William S. Smoot, III, occasionally lived on the -property, sometimes in a portion of the main house, and sometimes in -the old stone house, which he dreamed of remodeling. The main house -was rented to an antique dealer who, according to a Smoot descendant, -had the house "filled with junk from top to bottom." - -Since they could no longer maintain Salona as a working farm and none -of them wanted to occupy the main house on a permanent basis, the -Smoots decided to partition the property. In 1948, Calder G. Smoot, -only surviving son of William S. and Jennie K. Smoot, Sr., received -as his share some 65 acres and the house. He did not, however, occupy -Salona.[116] In the late 1940s and early 1950s, small parcels of the -Salona property were sold to the McLean Baptist Church, the Salona -Shopping Center and Trinity Methodist Church.[117] - -In the early 1950s, Salona was rented to the McLean Summer Theatre as -a dormitory for the actors. Reportedly, they left the house "a -shambles." The next tenants were a Danish captain and his family who -occupied the east wing. - -In 1952, Calder Gilliam Smoot died "unmarried and intestate" and his -65 acres and the house became the joint property of his four nephews: -John D. K. Smoot, Jr., Henry B. Smoot, William S. Smoot, III, and -John J. Smoot, and of his niece, Jane Wilson Smoot. Most of this -property, in three separate land transactions, became the property of -Clive and Susan DuVal.[118] - -[Illustration] - - - Chapter IV Notes - - Salona and the Smoots - - [95] Harry Wright Newman, _The Smoots of Maryland and Virginia_ -(Washington, D.C.: by the author, 1936), pp. 1-2. - - [96] Regina Combs Hammett, _History of St. Mary's County, Maryland_ -(Ridge, Md.: by the author, 1977), pp. 73, 85, 87, 96, 100, 235-6, -246, 285, 437. - - [97] James Jarboe Papers, Manuscript Collection, Maryland Historical -Society, Baltimore.

When they discovered Salona, it was occupied -by the Danish family who were in the east wing. They decided it was -just the house they wanted, unprepossessing though it appeared, full -of the musty odor of unoccupied houses, ill-treated by a succession -of temporary tenants and youthful vandals, and in poor repair inside -and out. Inspection of the house would have discouraged the average -home buyer but the DuVals had the desire and resources to do what was -necessary to rehabilitate the dwelling and to live in it. - -The first of three tracts was purchased from the Smoot heirs in -January, 1953, and the DuVals spent about a year extensively -renovating the house and grounds before they moved in. Without -specific descriptions of the original house to use as guidelines, -they attempted to preserve as much as possible of the presumed -original dwelling while adapting it to modern living.[119] - -Both of the DuVals are descendants of French Huguenots who immigrated -to New Amsterdam in the late eighteenth century. Both were born in -New York City. One of Mrs. DuVal's grandfathers was Jesse Metcalf, a -United States senator from Rhode Island, and her father was Frederic -H. Bontecow, a New York state senator. As other residents of Salona -had been before them, the DuVals were well educated, above the -average level of Fairfax County residents. Mrs. DuVal is a graduate -of Vassar, DuVal of Yale University Law School. And like some of -their predecessors, their income, cultural interests and extent of -community involvement are also well above the average for the time in -which they live.[120] - -The DuVal family arrived in Fairfax County during a period when the -population growth was expanding rapidly, both from in-migration and -natural increase. With them the couple brought their three children, -Susan Lynde (Lyn), Clive, III, and David. Daniel, their fourth, was -born in 1953. Their experience was a reflection of the times--in the -1950 U. S. Census, Fairfax County's population was 98,557; in 1960, -it had increased to 248,897.[121] - -[Illustration: _The DuVal family, about 1957. Left to right Daniel, -Susan Lynde, Clive II, Susan, David and Clive III. The English -setters, Christmas, Dusty and Belle, are also "members of the -family."_] - -Also reflecting the Washington metropolitan area's typical experience -in the 1950s, DuVal came from elsewhere to accept employment with the -federal government, in his case, as Assistant General Counsel -(International Affairs) for the Department of Defense. He was, -typically, a World War II veteran, a former officer in the United -States Navy. From 1955 to 1959, he was general counsel for the United -States Information Agency. Since then, he has been in the private -practice of law. As did the majority of married women with children -in the decades 1950-1970, in Fairfax County, Mrs. DuVal stayed at -home with the children rather than taking a regular outside job, -except for her many volunteer projects in which she was regularly -involved in the McLean community.[122] - -Salona became a place of hospitality, where social, political, arts -and educational events were held. The Woman's Club of McLean, the -McLean House Tour, the McLean Ballet Company, Children's Hospital, -the Fairfax YWCA, the McLean Boys Club, the Northern Virginia -Democratic Women's Club, Yale University students and the Historical -Society of Fairfax County, were among the many beneficiaries of the -DuVals' generosity in making Salona available for special -events.[123] - -In 1965, DuVal ran for and was elected to the Virginia House of -Delegates, in which he served for three consecutive terms.[124] He -ran unsuccessfully for the United States Senate seat against Harry F. -Byrd, Jr., in the democratic primary in 1970, but was subsequently -elected to the Virginia State Senate in 1971 and 1975.[125] - -Because of his deep interest in conservation and environmental -protection, DuVal received both the Virginia state award and the -National Wildlife Federation award in 1970 for being the outstanding -conservation legislator in the United States.[126] Consistent with -this demonstrated interest, the DuVals decided to take a major step -in conservation themselves. They entered into a perpetual easement -agreement in 1971 with the Board of Supervisors, Fairfax County, -Virginia, for the historic preservation of Salona, its surrounding -outbuildings and eight acres of land. In the same legal instrument, a -temporary easement for the remaining 44.3 acres was arranged for a -period of at least ten years.[127] A later amendment, in 1974, -provided for termination of the temporary easement only after January -1, 1990.[128] - -In 1975, a patriotic organization, the Society of the United States -Daughters of 1812, obtained the DuVals' permission to place an -historic plaque at Salona to commemorate James Madison's visit there -in 1814. The bronze plaque was mounted in a foundation stone from -what are thought to have been old slave quarters. They once stood in -the side yard below the house. The plaque reads as follows: - - - 1784-1815 - - SALONA - - - "A place of great hospitality" - - Shelter for President Madison - - August, 1914 - - When British burned Washington - - -Plaque placed by Virginia State Society - - National Society of United States - - Daughters of 1812 - - - 1975 - - - Chapter V Notes - - Salona and the DuVals - - [119] Fairfax County, Virginia, Deed Book 635, p. 471; interviews -with Susan and Clive DuVal by the author. - - [120] See Chapters II and IV; interviews with Clive and Susan DuVal -by the author. - - [121] Nan Netherton, Donald Sweig, Janice Artemel, Patricia Hickin -and Patrick Reed, _Fairfax County, Virginia: A History_ (Fairfax, -Va.: Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, 1978), p. 546. - - [122] Netherton, et al., _Fairfax County_, p. 659; interview with -Clive and Susan DuVal, January 11, 1979, by Nan Netherton; DuVal -family scrapbooks, Volumes I-VII, 1944-1978, Salona. - - [123] McLean _Providence Journal_, April 29, 1960; _Washington Post_, -April 23, 1961; Fairfax County _Sun-Echo_, January 15, 1965; -_Washington Star_, March 18, 1965; Fairfax County _Free Press -Newspapers_, September 29, 1966; _Globe_, May 14, 1970; Semi-Annual -meeting program, November 14, 1976; DuVal family scrapbooks, 1961 and -1963, Salona. - - [124] Virginia General Assembly, _Register of the General Assembly -from 1619-1976_ (Richmond, Va.: Virginia General Assembly, 1978). - - [125] Commonwealth of Virginia, _Manual of the Senate and House of -Delegates_ (Richmond, Va.: Department of Purchasing and Supply, -1978). - - [126] Program, National Wildlife Federation award ceremony, March 7, -1970, DuVal family scrapbook, Salona. - - [127] Fairfax County, Virginia, Deed Book 3418, p. 686. - - [128] Fairfax County, Virginia, Deed Book 4159, p. 436. - - - - - VI - - SALONA: THE HOUSE AND OUTBUILDINGS - - -The date of construction and the name of the builder of the house -known as Salona are unknown. - -There have been many changes to the mansion house, the outbuildings -and grounds through the years. The central house now has only one -wing instead of the earlier two. The large barn has been torn down; -only the substantial foundation bears witness to its size. A pile of -rubble marks the site of "the old stone house," thought by the Smoot -family to have been the oldest structure on the property. The -driveway entrance is off Buchanan Street instead of the Falls Road, -although evidence of the older driveway still exists. The rear -entrance road has been blocked by subdivision construction, although -its route remains visible across the south side of the property. -Perhaps the most decided changes are in the use of the land itself. -As McLean grew, the Salona farm shrank in area and its formerly -fertile acres were transformed into shopping centers, subdivisions, -streets and roads. - -Architectural historians say that they cannot pin-point the exact -construction date of Salona, but believe it to have been between 1790 -and 1810, a full twenty-year span. This belief is based in part on -examination of the types of nails used in the attic of the main -house, as well as the similarity of the "cross and Bible" door at the -north entrance to some of the doors at Sully, whose construction -began in 1793.[129] Many local sources claim that the house was built -in 1801 by William Maffitt,[130] but this supposition has not been -documented. The Smoot children were always told by their elders that -the house was started in 1790 and finished in 1801, and that Maffitt -was the builder. There was a residential structure on the land when -the 466 acres were advertised for sale in 1811.[131] - -[Illustration] - -Originally, the house was probably a rectangular two-story, five-bay -structure with flanking wings, which may have been frame. On the -north front, the brickwork is Flemish bond; on the other three sides -and the wing it is common bond. There are two interior end chimneys. -An elaborate bracketed cornice supports the gabled roof. This cornice -and the bracketed entrance porch with paired, squared columns show -definite Victorian influence and were probably originally added after -the Civil War. The DuVals altered the design slightly when they -renovated the house in 1952. - -The most unusual feature of Salona is its wide T-shaped hall which -runs the full width of the north front of the central house, with the -main stairway rising at its west end directly across one of the front -windows. The long hall originally led to the wings on either end, but -these were apparently destroyed during the Civil War and only the -east wing was rebuilt in 1866. There is a fireplace in every room, -although most of the Federal-style mantels have been recently -installed in Salona and have come from old houses in North Carolina -and New England. There are chair rails on the walls of the living -room, dining room, and the first floor hallway. Extensive remodeling -was done by the present owners.[132] The T-shaped hall ends on the -solid wall behind the stairway on the west side, and on the east -leads directly into the post-Civil War wing which contains a small -sitting room, bathroom, and the kitchen. The smaller hall, the stem -of the T, runs perpendicular to the main hall with opposing entrance -doors at each end. The spacious living and dining rooms flank the -smaller hall, with entrances from the main hall. - -[Illustration] - -It is a Smoot family legend that Constantino Brumidi, the Italian -immigrant who painted many of the murals in the U. S. Capitol in -Washington, D.C., was given shelter by the Smoots, probably after the -Civil War, when he was destitute. As a token of his gratitude, he -decorated the ceilings of the living room and dining room with -flowers and fruits. No trace of these paintings now exists. However, -when the DuVals purchased Salona in 1952, there were clearly remains -of paintings on the walls and ceilings. But the plaster was in such -poor condition that it had to be completely replaced. - -On the second floor, an upper hall, slightly smaller than the one -below, runs across the north front. It may once have been an open "T" -before modernization and the addition of two bathrooms by the DuVals. -To the right from the head of the stairs is the master bedroom with a -brick hearth and brick and wood mantel. The next bedroom, almost as -large, also contains a brick and wood mantel. In the east wing, the -hall leads directly into a den from which a stairway goes up to an -attic bedroom and bath, both added by the DuVals. The den also serves -as a passageway to a secondary hallway from which open two smaller -bedrooms separated by another stairway leading to the first floor -close to the kitchen. The unfinished portion of the attic is used for -storage. There is a partial basement, primarily under the east wing. - -No copy of the original floor plan has been found. Records of the -Virginia Mutual Assurance Society in Richmond show that no fire -insurance was ever purchased from them on Salona, hence no floor plan -drawings are on file there.[133] - -Because Maffitt died intestate, his estate was inventoried and -appraised. As a result, we know that the original house contained a -dining room furnished with a "set of three dining tables" and 24 -Windsor chairs, which tends to support the tradition that the -original dining room was in the west wing, possibly occupying the -entire first floor of it.[134] - -According to Smoot family legend, Salona was built entirely by -slaves, who made the brick from clay on the property. These legends -also claim that the woodwork was made by William Buckland who did the -woodwork at Gunston Hall in 1758. This seems unlikely as William -Buckland died in 1774. Smoot family legends also say that the house -was built by Maffitt, with construction starting in 1790 and ending -in 1801, and that the wings were larger than the main house. - -Although the DuVals found no remnants of a west wing foundation when -they were doing extensive grading, there is visual evidence in the -brick mortar that a doorway and a window existed in the west end of -the main house. Moreover, architectural historians believe that the -placement of the kitchen and summer kitchen testify to the west -wing's existence. Furthermore, the Smoots agree that their older -relatives stated that the Yankees destroyed the west wing which was -never rebuilt. - -[Illustration: _Salona entrance hall. Photo by the author, 1975._] - -[Illustration: _West wall, showing evidence of a former doorway -opening. Photo by the author, 1975._] - - - The Outbuildings - -The old stone house was an enigma which fascinated the young Smoots. -They report that the house was built around an oversized stone -chimney in its center, with four fireplaces, two back-to-back on each -floor. Downstairs was one big room, with a winding stairway at one -end leading to the second floor where there were two rooms. -Unfortunately the building was in such disrepair when the DuVals -bought the property that they later had it razed in the interests of -safety. It was located north and east of the mansion house and was -referred to by one of the Smoots as "the trappers cabin." - -The old stone spring house is still standing. - -[Illustration: _Stonehouse ruins, Salona.

Close to -the house on the south is the outdoor brick kitchen, used by the -Smoots as a "summer kitchen," now by the DuVals as a guest house. -Diagonally opposite the east wing is a former brick smoke house now -used for storage. Farther to the southeast is a board and batten -corncrib. Some distance farther east are the ruins of a large bank -barn, whose thick stone foundations testify to its former size and -sturdiness. At the west end of the house, some distance away, is an -old three-hole brick privy, once approached through a grape arbor. - -The DuVals have built a tennis court on a lower level of land on the -east.[135] - -[Illustration: _The outside brick kitchen, now a guest house, Salona. -Photo by the author, 1975._] - -[Illustration: _PRIVY_] - -[Illustration: _The old brick privy, Salona.

It also fitted in with the county -government's stated purpose to shape the character, direction and -timing of community development through the preservation of open -space land. The permanent easement was also given "to protect in -perpetuity the mansion known as 'Salona.'" It provides that "The -mansion house known as 'Salona' as such structure exists at the date -of the execution of this instrument, shall not be razed, demolished, -moved or relocated until such action is approved by the Board of -County Supervisors acting upon the advice of the Architectural Review -Board ... or until such structure becomes uninhabitable or demolished -through fire, storm or similar natural calamity." - -Provision is also made for the protection of trees and shrubbery and -various uses permitted under the permanent easement. - -The permanent easement includes the eight acres surrounding the -mansion; the temporary easement covers the remaining 44.3 acres. - -On November 20, 1974, the deed of easement was amended, providing for -the termination of the temporary easement only after January 1, 1990. -The amendment was signed by the DuVals and Jean Packard, Chairman -acting for the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors.[138] - -Salona was placed on the Virginia Landmarks Register on June 19, -1973,[139] and on the National Register of Historic Places on July -24, 1973.[140] - -[Illustration] - - - Chapter VII Notes - - Preservation by Easement - - [136] Interview with Clive and Susan DuVal, January 5, 1979, by Nan -Netherton, at Salona. - - [137] Deed of Easement, Fairfax County, Virginia, Deed Book 3418, p. -686, March 24, 1971. - - [138] Amending Deed of Easement, Fairfax County, Virginia, Deed Book -4159, p. 436, November 20, 1974. - - [139] Virginia State Landmarks Register, Landmarks Commission, -Richmond, Virginia. - - [140] National Register of Historic Places, U.
