Thomas Stone National Historic Site
National Historic Site · Port Tobacco, Maryland
Haberdeventure, the plantation house of Thomas Stone, one of the four Marylanders who signed the Declaration of Independence and one of the least known men to have done so. He was a reluctant revolutionary who preferred reconciliation, served in Congress without enthusiasm, and died at forty-four. The house burned almost to nothing in 1977 and was reconstructed on its surviving walls, which is why the site feels quieter and less freighted than most signers' houses.
