About Rebecca Ridgely

The wife of Charles Ridgely (The Builder), Rebecca Dorsey Ridgely (1740-1812), was the first mistress of Hampton. She witnessed the construction of the mansion, but did not live there for long as she turned the new house over to her nephew and moved to a nearby estate in Towson (now known as "Auburn") after her husband's death. Rebecca was a fervent Methodist and donated a great deal of money to Robert Strawbridge, an Irish immigrant and preacher who is now recognized as the founder of Methodism in America.
