Recto and verso of postcard featuring photo of the Carter-Saunders House (now known as the Robert Carter House.) Back of card reads: The Carter Saunders House, Williamsburg, Virginia. Erected early in the 18th century, this house was purchased by the Colony to serve as the temporary residence of Governor Dinwiddie in 1751 while the Palace near-by was being repaired and enlarged. It was later the home of Robert Carter Nicholas, Treasurer of the Colony, and of Robert Carter of Nomini Hall. Still later, it was the home of Robert Saunders, President of the College of William and Mary. Restored.

Gardens - Virginia - Williamsburg
View of the formal garden behind the Robert Carter House taken by F.S. Lincoln in 1935. Geometric parterres bordered with boxwood hedges are intersected by brick pathways to create an ornate and orderly vista. The necessary or privy is situated at the back of the garden, as was customary to provide privacy. A bench along the back path offers a spot to enjoy the scents and colors of the flowers.

Sketchbooks
Architecture, Domestic - Virginia - Williamsburg
Architecture, Colonial - Virginia - Williamsburg
This sketchbook contains field drawings and notations about several historic buildings in Williamsburg that the Reverend Donald MacDonald- Millar examined during a visit to the town in 1919. Sketches include architectural details of the Mary Cary House, George Wythe House, Ludwell-Paradise House, Powell-Hallam House (today known as the Seymour Powell Tenement), the Digges House (today identified as the Bray School) and the Robert Carter House. The sketchbook is significant as a record of the condition of these buildings in the second decade of the twentieth century, nine years before John D. Rockefeller Jr. agreed to fund the commencement of in-depth restoration work on some of Williamsburg's colonial structures. It also illustrates the growing interest in Williamsburg's architectural history among early pioneers in the field of historic preservation.
