The plantation where President James Monroe was born in 1758 consisted of 250 acres extending northwestward from Monroe Creek and lying on both sides of the tributary Freeneck Gut. Through a 1764 purchase, the property grew to 350 acres by the time James Monroe was six years old. Unfortunately, no document prior to 1774 includes a plat, useful boundary description, or even precise acreage. On the other hand, the location and extent of the property in 1758 and 1764 generally can be inferred from various sources. |
