Introduction

The Mansion House is the original mansion built by Augustine Washington around 1734. It is where the Washingtons lived. Washington’s elder half-brother Lawrence lived at the property from 1741 until his death in 1752. George Washington began leasing the property in 1754. Although he did not inherit it outright until 1761, he expanded the house in the late 1750s, raising the roof to make the Mansion two and a half stories high. In 1774, he began to add the north and south wings, the cupola and piazza to create the structure it is today.

The following lists are taken from the Mount Vernon slavery database of Tithables from 1760 - 1769.[1]
