Notes |
The Wardrops managed a large residential complex that included a substantial brick house, outbuildings, orchards, livestock and an ornamental garden. Their household included 32 slaves - house servants, skilled craftsmen and field hands. Following Wardrop's death in 1760, Lettice married Dr. Adam Thompson (creator of the "American Method" of smallpox inoculation) and after his death, she wed Col. Joseph Sim. She died on April 3, 1776 and willed her children the property, including the family burial vault. The house was remodeled in 1857 and produced such a drastic change that the original Georgian appearance of the Wardrops' dwelling was lost. In 1986, the house was saved from demolition and returned to its 1742 appearance. Darnall's Chance was opened to the public as a house museum in 1988.
