The Formal Dinning Room in the Ford Mansion
Theodosia Ford occupied two of the four upstairs bedrooms and reserved the kitchen for her own personal use. Her daughter, Elizabeth Ford, who was 12 when Washington stayed at the mansion, stayed in her mother’s room. During the winter months of 1779 to 1780 she read and learned a total of 25 stitches. Theodosia’s boys stayed in another room downstairs. This room featured two doors. One door lead to the servants’ side of the house above the pantry and the other door lead to the center hall.
