Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jumel Mansion: Being a Full History of the House on Harlem Heights Built by Roger Morris Before the Revolution; Together With Some Account of Its More Notable Occupants, With Illustrations The accepted story of Madame Jumel is made up from the fantastic imaginings of a crazy woman, who had sought all her life for social recognition, without success in America, and whose reputed triumphs were largely the dreams of a disordered mind. Her story is here told for the first time, with no desire to expose a family skeleton, but as a part of the evolution of an historical house which drifted upon degenerate days. The facts of the birth and early history of Betsy Bowen are taken from the town records of the village of Providence, brought as evidence in the United States Supreme Court, in a famous case, whose official record Congressional Library at Washington.

Download or read book Morris Jumel Mansion written by Carol S. Ward and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morris-Jumel Mansion is an engaging look at the history of Manhattan's oldest residence. Built by Roger Morris in 1765 as a summer estate, it has truly been a witness to history throughout the last 250 years. Located in the upper Manhattan neighborhood of Washington Heights, the mansion sits on a large hill, with sweeping views of both the East and Hudson Rivers. George Washington strategically located his headquarters here during the fall of 1776, but the Jumels, who made the house their home from 1810 to 1895, left the most indelible mark. In 1904, the residence became a museum, thanks to the Daughters of the American Revolution, who saved the house and allowed it to grow with the changing neighborhood. Today, this landmark is a symbol of both the long history of the city and the contemporary face of its now diverse neighborhood.

Download or read book Remarkable Rise of Eliza Jumel written by Margaret Oppenheimer and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notorious life and times of one of the wealthiest women in 19th-century America Born into grinding poverty, Eliza Jumel was raised in a brothel, indentured as a servant, and confined to a workhouse when her mother was in jail. Yet by the end of her life, "Madame Jumel" was one of the richest women in New York, with servants of her own and mansions in Manhattan and Saratoga Springs. During her remarkable life, she acquired a fortune from her first husband, a French merchant, and almost lost it to her second, the notorious vice president Aaron Burr. Divorcing Burr amid lurid charges of adultery, Jumel lived on triumphantly to the age of 90, astutely managing her property and public persona. After her death, while family members extolled her virtues, claimants to her estate painted a different picture: of a prostitute, the mother of George Washington's illegitimate son, and a wife who ruthlessly defrauded her husband and perhaps even plotted his death. With this book, author Margaret A. Oppenheimer draws from archival documents and court filings, many untouched since the 1800s, to tell the true and full story of Eliza Jumel.
