Mattaponi (John Bowie Jr. House)

Mattaponi, also known as the John Bowie, Jr., House, is a historic home in Croom, Maryland, built c. 1820 on the foundation of an earlier house dating to the 1730s, three miles northwest of Nottingham, Prince George's County, Maryland.
John Bowie, Sr. purchased a large tract of land about two miles west of Nottingham for Captain William Bowie when he was twenty one years old, called "Brooke's Reserve" where he erected a large brick house called Mattaponi, the name of the nearest creek and a Native American word meaning "meeting of the waters."〔 The tract of land later became known by the name for the house.〔
The Bowie family had extensive landholdings in the county and were important politically. They settled in and near Nottingham during the colonial period, building a number of homes including Mattaponi.
Robert Bowie, Governor of Maryland from 1803 to 1806 and 1811–12, is buried at Mattaponi and is believed to have been born there as well,〔 though this is not proven; as an adult, he made his residence at "The Cedars" in Nottingham on the Patuxent River.〔 Mattaponi is very similar in styling to the home he built nearby for his daughter, Bowieville, also brick covered with stucco.〔
Walter Bowie was also born at Mattaponi.〔
In December 1846, Richard Lowndes Ogle married Priscilla Mackall Bowie at Mattaponi.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://msa.maryland.gov/megafile/msa/speccol/sc5400/sc5496/015900/015912/html/015912bio.html )
