[edit] Finance?

It says he studied finance in college. That seems a little unlikely, bussiness education is relativly new. Colonial universities, where all liberal arts and divinity schools.

My source claimed "finance", but I just noticed that the Alexander Hamilton article claims he first studied there to become a medical doctor. Anyone who wishes to confirm one or the other is welcome to correct whichever articles needs it. — Eoghanacht talk 16:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio

Much of this text is copied from the NPS web site and the other reference verbatim. I'm amazed this snuck through the Did You Know process. --216.49.153.98 13:18, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Those sources are in the public domain. — Eoghanacht talk 13:34, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
You are correct. --63.117.131.11 16:28, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Improvements to article

When I started this article, I was left with some unanswered questions. If any editor out there can find the answers, and incorporate them into the article, it would be most welcomed.

  • Where was the house originally? (It was in the general area, but an address or lat/long would be helpful — a scan of an historic map would be awesome.)
  • What is at the original site now?
  • When was the structure moved?
  • Does the house still contain original furnishings?

[edit] Changing infobox

It seems to me that the NRHP infobox would be far better suited to this article than the protected areas one. So I will make that change. Daniel Case 03:45, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
