A House Divided: Colonial Patriots and Tories at Woodford Mansion

This guided tour will discuss three families who called Woodford Mansion their summer home in the turbulent years up to and including the Revolutionary War: The Barclays and Franks who were British loyalists, and George Clymer, a Founding Father who signed both the Declaration of Independence and Constitution. We will also put a spotlight on the enslaved, indentured, and hired persons that lived and worked at Woodford, and how the Revolutionary War impacted them.
