Description

Oblique view looking through the front gate towards the north elevation of the St. George Tucker House, taken by F.S. Lincoln in 1935. St. George Tucker, a law professor at the College of William & Mary, purchased and moved the central portion of the house from Palace Green to Market Square in 1788. He added wings to enlarge the size. At the time this photo was taken, Tucker family descendants still lived in the home, as they were granted life tenancy after its restoration.
