About Susanna Slye

Daughter of famous Maryland pioneer, Dr. Thomas Gerrard and Susanna Snow, one of the largest landholders and political figures in Maryland. She inherited much land from her father, called St. Clements Manor with 1,000 acres of land known as White Point. Married twice: 1st, Robert Slye; 2nd, Col. John Coode. When her father, Dr. Thomas Gerrard died, a bad storm all but destroyed the manor house and the entire family graveyard washed away into the Potomac River. The photograph shows a photo after the storm. You can see how close to the house the dirt has slipped away taking the family graveyard with it, even though the graves were in a different area than the house.


comments

Did not marry Capt. & Dr. Robert Ellyson, that is a confusion by previous genealogists. Disconnected July 2015.


Taken just before it was torn down after a large storm. You can see the damage at the side of the home. The Potomac was running under the foundation and the family burial ground was washed away.
