THE HISTORY OF THE BLACKBURN FAMILY by Louisa D. F. Hogue, recopied by Ruth C. S. Black with an introduction by Brendon Hanafin* Rippon Lodge is an 18th century plantation house located in Woodbridge, Virginia. The house was built circa 1745 by Colonel Richard Blackburn of Rippon, England. Blackburn was one of the founding fathers of the Port of Dumfries, and a carpenter by trade. His son, Thomas, served in the Revolutionary War under George Washington and Washington was a frequent guest. Washington’s nephew, Bushrod, married Anne Blackburn at Rippon and later owned the plantation after Thomas’ death. This manuscript, written by Louisa Hogue in the late 19th century is a remarkable genealogical document and offers a unique glimpse into Rippon Lodge’s Rippon Lodge courtesy Brendon Hanafin storied past. Her grandson, Antarctic explorer Admiral Richard Blackburn Black, purchased Rippon in the early 1950’s. Prince William County purchased Rippon Lodge from the Black family in 2000 and is in the process of restoring the house and readying the site for public access. Although the house and grounds remain closed during the restoration, the public is invited to Rippon Lodge on the 3rd and 11th of May for a day of tours, hikes and archeological programs.

Evening coming on before we reached our destination, we made frequent inquiries about the road, mostly from negroes, whose - 2 - Prince William Reliquary Vol. 2, No. 1 (January 2003) cabins, almost the only habitations of this wild region, we passed at considerably long intervals. The information given was usual[ly] accompanied by the assurance that it was a "right fair way." Arriving at Neapsco Mills after dark, we were recieved [sic] by the hospitable Mr. Atkinson, to whom I gave the letter of introduction, after which supper and bed were welcome refreshment. In the morning, "mine host" mounted his horse, and rode behind the buggy, accompanying and directing us to the old home of my ancestors. He showed me through the Mansion House, each room of which (except a dark room under the slanted roof) was supplied with an open fireplace, and a mantle with fluted woodwork. The walls were all paneled work, and so perfectly was the lumber seasoned and joined that not a seam or imperfection was to be seen. The foundation was going to ruin. There were great gaps where it appeared that the bricks composing it had probably been removed for use elsewhere. The outside collarway and door were also in ruins. From the dooryard in front of the house, the Potomac River was visible through openings in the forests of that wooded ridge, the same on which Mount Vernon stands, some twelve miles away to the northward. Scarsely [sic] more than a stone's throw from the mansion is the private graveyard, where our ancestor, Richard Blackburn, lies buried. Mr. Atkinson conducted me to this spot, chalked over the old gray stone which covered the grave, and traced out the letter[s] with a little twig, so that I might read the inscription entire, except in two or three places, one on either edge where a small chip had been broken off, and again where only the "V" of Virginia was legible, the remainder of the word being too much worn for even this method of deciphering to bring it out.
