As a historian who focused on early American history, and specifically the western expansion from about the time of the Lewis and Clark expedition, I found this extremely fascinating. I had known quite a bit about Campbell’s early life as a fur trapper but not nearly so much about his later life. Thanks so much for posting! Semper Fi ❤
Absolutely amazing. So much character and charm. I love the furnishings and how much of the home is lovingly restored. This family had a beautiful home.
Thank you that was a great video what a beautiful house so fastidiously decorated. I particularly found the grand mirrors magnificent and the gilded frames in the same room, very extravagant.
Incredible to see this house preserved and the foresight to preserve it! This is a must see for anyone interested in this architecture. Thank you for the walkthrough!
This was from a time guests where received around 4:00pm. The ladies would congregate in drawing room for tea and catch up on the latest gossip. The men would gather in the library for a whiskey and talk business or politics. Occasionally was the obligatory dinner party where the old guard could mingle with the up-and-coming, look them over and introduce them to the local 'social set'. If there was a ballroom on the top floor, then of course there would be spring cotillions where the younger ladies and gentlemen could dance and flirt while the adults looked on, whispering about possible 'good matches'.
They try to keep the entire house decorated with the original furnishings, if they ever find the children's furniture they would probably convert the rooms back.
