This farm, formerly known as Burberry's Berry, was the home of Captain Jonathan Caldwell of Colonel Haslet's Regiment during the Revolution. Tradition says Delaware soldiers received the name "Blue Hen's Chickens" from Caldwell's men, who had with them game chickens, celebrated in Kent County for their famous fighting qualities, from the brood of a certain blue hen.
