有两座附属建筑,以前用于安置寄宿生,后来用作储藏室。有三个房间的棚屋和一个带有天窗的煤渣砖车库和七间卧室。
“榆树”由查尔斯·詹姆斯·豪斯建造,他于 1893 年与家人从波普拉岛来到蒂尔曼。这处房产由现在的家族于 1928 年从夏洛特·豪斯手中购买,并一直作为寄宿公寓运营到 20 世纪 60 年代。“榆树”的名字源于入口处两棵大榆树,它们位于前院。正面立面的华丽中央凸窗非常独特。这栋房子很大,很杂乱,位于蒂尔曼村中心的两英亩土地上。
与岛上的许多房子一样,(蒂尔曼岛水手博物馆)“李家”以其原主人的名字命名。李家在 20 世纪初拥有这栋房子,据说一直住在那里直到 20 世纪 30 年代的某个时候。这栋房子的继承人是蒂尔曼岛的居民 Leona Garvin Harrison,它很快就成为了“The Elms”的一部分,这是一个非常受欢迎且成功的岛屿钓鱼派对度假村。Elms 包括毗邻 Lee House 的房产。“Leona 小姐”是度假村的负责人,她认为 Lee House 可以作为寄宿公寓,接待任何超员的客人。
这栋房子可以容纳 12 人,据说曾为经常来访的医生、律师和知名企业主提供住宿。所有餐点都在主楼供应,从 Lee House 通往主楼的人行道仍然可见。一天的钓鱼费用为 25 美元,如果再加 5.50 美元,客人就可以享用全套早餐、外带午餐和家庭式晚餐。晚餐菜单上常见的是度假村著名的 Crab Imperial、炸鸡、烤牛肉和蟹饼,搭配切片西红柿、玉米和员工厨师 Theodore 的新鲜出炉的面包。晚餐和在水上度过漫长的一天后,客人们会回到李家打牌、交流故事,然后就此结束一天的旅程。
随着时代的变迁,越来越多的人购买了自己的船,对钓鱼派对房产的需求开始减弱。李家于 1971 年作为寄宿公寓关闭,此后一直空置。
1984 年,这所房子被传给了 Leona 女士的女儿 Shirley Garvin Walton,后来又于 2000 年由 Shirley 的儿子 John 和女儿 Barbara 继承。
History:
"The Elms" is located on the Northeast corner of Mission Road and Route 33 in the village of Tilghman on Tilghman Island, Talbot County, MD. The house faces west, with the gable oriented on a north/south axis. Built around 1893. The Elms is clad in weatherboard and supported by a brick pier foundation. The roof of this two story frame home is covered in asphalt shingles. The five bay west main facade has a central door with sidelights and a four light transom. A latticed portico with a scroll sawn balustrade shelters the entrance door and is flanked by a pair of six over six sash windows. On the second floor, there is a central projecting five sided bay with a single four over four sash window on each side. A cross gable, clad in green shingles and supported by decorative brackets, roof this projecting bay. The central bay is flanked by a pair of six over six windows. The north elevation of the primary wing gable end has two four light windows at the attic story, cornice returns, and an interior brick chimney. An extensive addition extends from the rear of the primary wing to the east. The north elevation of this addition has a assortment of one over one, two over two, and six over six sash windows on the first floor and second floor. There is an exterior chimney located on the east side of the addition. The east elevation of the primary wing is an addition connected to the main house by an enclosed breezeway. The south elevation has a full length porch enclosed in 1943.
There are two outbuildings which were formerly used to house boarders which at a later date were used for storage. There is three room shed and a cinderblock garage with dormer winders and seven bedrooms.
"The Elms" was built by Charles James Howeth who came to Tilghman with his family from Poplar Island in 1893. This property was purchased from Charlotte Howeth by the current family in 1928 and operated as a boarding house until the 1960's. "The Elms" got its name from the two large elm trees at the entrance which stood in the front yard. The ornate central bay of the front facade is distinctive. The house is large and rambling and situated on two acres of land in the center of the village of Tilghman.
Like many houses on the Island, (Tilghman Island Watermen's Museum) the "Lee House" was named after its original owners. The Lee family, who owned the home during the early 1900s, was said to have resided there until sometime in the 1930s. The house was inherited by a Tilghman Island resident, Leona Garvin Harrison, and it soon became a part of “The Elms,” a very popular and successful island fishing party resort. The Elms included the property adjacent to the Lee House. “Miss Leona,” as she was known, ran the resort and decided that the Lee House would serve well as a boarding house, taking in any overflow guests.
The house could sleep up 12 people and is said to have provided lodging for doctors, lawyers and prominent business owners who would often visit. All meals were served in the main house and the well-traveled sidewalk leading to it from the Lee House is still visible. A day of fishing would cost $25 and for an additional $5.50 guests enjoyed a full breakfast, a packed lunch, and a family-style feast for dinner. Common on the dinner menu were the resort’s famous Crab Imperial, fried chicken, roast beef, and crab cakes always accompanied by sliced tomatoes, corn, and staff Chef Theodore’s freshly baked bread. After dinner and a long day on the water, guests would head back to the Lee House to play cards, exchange stories and call it a night.
As times began to change and more and more people purchased their own boats, the demand for the fishing party properties began to wane. The Lee House closed as a boarding house in 1971 and has remained vacant ever since.
In 1984 the house was passed on to Ms. Leona’s daughter, Shirley Garvin Walton and was later inherited by Shirley’s son John and daughter Barbara in 2000.
