I have been unable to return the call to the number provided in the message, but hope that the seeker may find this post. The home is in Garland Quarles&#8217; book &#8220;The Story of One Hundred Old Homes in Winchester, Virginia.&#8221; The book is available at the Handley Library or at PHW&#8217;s office at 530 Amherst Street. Copies may also be available for purchase at Winchester Book Gallery and the Stewart Bell Jr. Archives at Handley Library.<\/p>\n<p>The home is referred to as the Fred Boyd home. According the Quarles&#8217; research it was built in 1827 by George Fulk or Folk. It was subsequently owned by Elizabeth D. Smith (1853-1861), John Vilwig (1862-1898), James P. Whitacre (1898-1910), and then to Frederick S. Boyd in 1910. The historic plaque appears to have been placed in 1972 by Dr. and Mrs. Stuart Pannill Jones.<\/p>\n<p>If you were the person seeking this information, please feel free to give us an email at phwi@verizon or try to give us a call back at 540-667-3577. Thank you for your interest, and I hope we can connect!<\/p>\n<p><b>Update: Mystery is solved and we have connected!
