Completed in 1816 on land purchased with a legacy from George Washington, Tudor Place brings to life over 180 years of American cultural and social history.
As war overtook the nation's capital, tradition collided with need for Tudor Place inheritor Britannia Peter Kennon. See how this widow and single mother took in Union officers as boarders to save the home her parents built.
