Morris-Jumel Mansion
      Elie Stevenson | Katherine Lee
History
• Built in 1765, Morris-Jumel Mansion is Manhattan’s oldest house,
  built as a country home for British Colonel, Roger Morris and his
  wife Mary Philipse
• George Washington took up the house as his headquarters in
  September and October of 1776, taking advantage of the
  strategic views of Harlem, the Bronx, Manhattan, the Hudson, the
  southern harbor, and New Jersey
• In 1810 the house was purchased by a wine importer, Stephen
  Jumel, and his wife Eliza, who went on to marry US VP, Aaron
  Burr, upon the untimely death of Stephen Jumel in 1832

The interpretation
• Previously the house was interpreted
  primarily as the Morris mansion, focusing on
  the house’s role during the colonial era
• Currently, the house is interpreted in three
  distinct time periods:

   – The Jumel Period
   – The Museum Period (post 1904)
