In January 1984\, the Corporation succeeded in taking title to a 50-acre parcel of land which was all that remained with the original buildings at the heart of Jefferson’s original plantation.\nWatch Thomas Jefferson himself\, portrayed by veteran interpreter Bill Barker\, as he arrives via horse and carriage at the front of the retreat home to welcome his guests for the day.
