History
Buccleuch Mansion in New Brunswick, New Jersey, near the Raritan River, is one of the state’s older surviving houses and is significant for its art, architecture, and military history. Built in 1739 by Anthony White for Elizabeth Morris, it began as White House Farm and was linked to Revolutionary-era events through their son Anthony Walton White. By 1780 it belonged to Colonel Charles Stewart and was visited by George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, General Kosciusko, General Gates, and John Hancock. Renamed Buccleuch in 1821 by Colonel Joseph Warren Scott, it later became a city park property and now operates as a museum with Scott family furnishings.
