Hi - the Virginia Historical Inventory has a report on Oak Hill, and a photograph that was taken back in the 1930's. The URL is: http://eagle.vsla.edu/cgi-bin/vhi.gateway?searchtype=keyword&searcharg=oak+hill+loudoun Click on the "Report Home Page" link at the top of the record for Oak Hill and you will be taken to a map showing the location of the structure. The Survey Report should have details of the history of ownership. Elizabeth > > Can anyone help with these two queries on James Monroe. > 1.
