A copy of a 1917 drawing by architect Howard Sill of the south front of the first Homeland residence. This home was eventually demolished in 1839 and replaced by a larger, more modern one. The Homeland estate was situated in what is now known as the Homeland neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland. Full transcription: Original house at "Homeland." Build in 17-- Taken down in 1839.
