<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>A Virginia City, Nevada, mining engineer, Goodwin Jones built the Parish House as his home. No record ensured the identity of the architect but the engineering abilities of Jones was accounted for much of the design of construction. A couple of mining timbers were used as a fundamental part of the foundation. These timbers reflect the house’s association with mining. Redwood’s usage on the exterior wall and the durability of the rough-cut fur used for the frame attest to Jones desire for a long-lived home. The Parish House has one living and dining room, a kitchen, 3 big bedrooms, and a few other small rooms; the size of the rooms is quite large as it was the style of Victorian Architecture. The Italianate style became well-liked after the incident which took place in October 1875 and ravaged many areas of Virginia City. Later this decorative architectural style was in demand in Comstock for the physical manifestation of its economic success. Several owners owned and used the Parish House in the last 146 years. The house is standing square and true till date though some minor settling of the bay windows is noticeable. The Parish House is an evidence of Goodwin Jones&#39; engineering skill and surely of the capability and knowledge of the anonymous builders.</p><br>
<p>The sight of the Mountains Catholic Church and the St. Paul Episcopal Church can be seen from the windows of the living room. It also shows different groups of people living in harmony in the neighborhood. The two churches were crucial parts of the neighborhood from their construction dates to the present date. These churches are contemporaries of the Parish House. The location of the old Methodist Church was close to the neighborhood which attested to the diversity of the neighborhood. According to the, it is a substantially Irish area.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1649, Ralph Wormeley Sr. patented more than 3,200 acres of land on the lower side of the Rappahannock River, east of Nimcock Creek (a/k/a Rosegill Creek). It contained both the old and new Nimcock native American towns. Within a year Wormeley built a house for his bride, the former Agatha Eltonhead, who had survived her first husband, Luke Stubbinge of Northampton County. Wormeley was at the time a burgess for York County and the next year received an appointment to the Virginia Governors Council. However, he died in 1651, leaving behind an infant son Ralph Wormeley Jr. His widow soon married Sir Henry Chicheley, who became the colonys lieutenant governor, as well as lived at and operated Rosegill. Chicheley died at Rosegill, as many years later would Ralph Wormeley Jr. Both Chicheley and his stepson Ralph Wormeley Jr. (who also served as a burgess before being named to the Governors Council) supported Governor William Berkeley during Bacons Rebellion in 1676, during which the plantation was plundered and both men imprisoned for a time.</p><br>
<p>Most of the buildings now on the side were constructed by the grandson of Ralph Wormeley Jr., Ralph Wormeley IV (1715-1790). Although his grandfather was the familys most powerful member, and served on the Virginia Governors Council and briefly as acting governor, this man (or he and his son) represented Middlesex County in the House of Burgesses before the French and Indian War and in the Virginia House of Delegates following the American Revolutionary War. The last generation of Wormeleys to live at the plantation was Ralph Wormeley V, who ardently supported the British cause in the American Revolutionary War and was sent by his father to supervise lands in Berkeley County in western Virginia.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The house is an 11-bay, two story dwelling with a gable roof. The original section dates to about 1740, and the house was subsequently enlarged and modified to reach its present form about 1850.

<p>Snodgrass Tavern is an historic tavern located near Hedgesville in Berkeley County, West Virginia. The structure was built in stages beginning around 1742, and is one of the oldest buildings in West Virginia still standing. It is uncertain when the structure became a tavern; but according to Early Hedgesville Chronicles 1720–1947, by William Moore, an account of Robert Snodgrass&#39;s wife, Susannah and their first daughter, baby Elizabeth describes it having been used as a tavern during the Indian wars at the brink of the French and Indian War . Specifically, they hid beneath the floors of the tavern, while the Indians drank and fought above. The tavern lasted until 1847, when the property was sold as a private residence. The structure and surrounding property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It is unclear who built the original sections of the tavern. One source states that in 1732, Lord Fairfax granted William Snodgrass a 1,000 acre tract of land in what is now Berkeley County, West Virginia, upon which he began building the tavern. However, other sources claim John Ford began the original construction, selling the land at some point to the Rawlings family, who then sold the land to Robert Snodgrass in 1779. Nevertheless, the Snodgrass name became associated with the tavern. Beginning around 1742, construction of the building was begun. The first section built was a -story square log structure of side length 15 ft. This was followed about fifteen years later by a separate two-story log structure approximately 10 feet to the west of the first structure. Eventually these separate structures were connected, and the first section was increased to a full two stories. Around 1813, the last addition to the tavern was added along the entire length of the northern side of the structure and was constructed from sandstone. The building has twin 32 ft chimneys on both ends, which is considered an unusual feature in the area. A veranda spans the full length of the building&#39;s front side.</p><br>
<p>Although the exact date when the structure became a tavern is uncertain, it is believed to have become such gradually and at an early date. The tavern room was 18 ft by 24 ft in dimension, which was exceptionally large for tavern rooms of that era. The tavern was located approximately halfway between Martinsburg and what is now known as Berkeley Springs. This led to the property being referred to as the Halfway House. The tavern lasted until 1847, when James Snodgrass, who refused to sell liquor (causing business to dwindle), began renting out the tavern and eventually sold it. The building became a private residence, in which state it remains.</p><br>
<p>The tavern received several notable visitors throughout its existence. George Washington visited the tavern on multiple occasions. The first visit occurred in 1750, when Washington was surveying land for Lord Fairfax. Another visit was recorded in Washington&#39;s diary on September 5, 1784. Washington also stopped at Snodgrass when traveling to Berkeley Springs (also known as Bath) on other occasions. Noted politician Henry Clay visited Snodgrass Tavern while visiting friends in the area during July 1827, at which time he was the USA Secretary of State.</p><br>
<p>The tavern was originally listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 24, 1973. to 205 acre. This expansion was done to include other historic structures and sites on the property, including a slave cemetery and various outbuildings. Snodgrass Tavern is one of the oldest buildings still standing in West Virginia.</p><br>
