7. Description Inventory No. PG: 68-002 Condition excellent deteriorated good X ruins fair altered Prepare both a one-paragraph summary and a comprehensive description of the resource and its various elements as it exists today. The is located along the east side of the Paint Branch Creek in Anacostia River Park, Maryland. This 16.42-acre parcel is west of the intersection of Kenilworth Avenue (MD 201) and Paint Branch Parkway. This parcel, designated as Parcel 3, was part of the tract of land known as the Old Mill Tract. However, Prince George s County s GIS mapping documents the mill as being located southwest of the intersection on Parcel 4. It is possible that this mill was located on Parcel 4 as it is adjacent to Parcel 3 and both were owned by Charles B. Calvert in the mid-nineteenth century. Paint Branch Creek was dry at the time of the 2007 on-site survey, so access to along the bank was possible. Approximately 100 feet to the east of the streambed is a small hill where scattered pieces of concrete, stone, and wood remain on the hill, indicating it may have been the site of the Walker-Mowatt Mill. MILL According to research conducted in 1973 by Michael F. Dwyer, the Walker-Mowatt Mill was a small wood-frame building with a water wheel. 1 The mill is no longer extant; during the 2007 on-site survey the site included remnants of concrete, stone, and wood, which may be associated with this mill site. INTEGRITY The does not retain sufficient integrity to convey its significance as an example of a nineteenth-century mill in Prince George s County. The site, located along a dry streambed, is indistinguishable from the surrounding bank and has lost its integrity of materials, design, workmanship, association, and feeling. This site may have potential to yield archeological information related to nineteenth-century mills. 1 Michael F.

(For compliance projects, complete evaluation on a DOE Form see manual.) STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The Walker-Mowatt Mill, no longer extant, exemplifies the diversity of economic activity in Prince George s County during the mid-nineteenth century. Although never a dominant form of economic activity for the tobacco-producing county, grist mills were significant ancillary industries. Little is known about the operations of the mill and its subsequent demolition. However, the operators of the mill may have left an archeological record. Currently, the is located at the north end of Anacostia River Park, east of the Paint Branch Creek. The property s importance as an archeological site could not be determined at the time of the 2007 on-site survey. This site no longer retains sufficient above-ground integrity to convey its significance as part of the county s nineteenth-century industrial and economic history. HISTORIC CONTEXT Situated on the east bank of Paint Branch Creek, the is located east of University Park, south of Berwyn Heights, west of the Baltimore Washington Parkway, and north of Riverdale and Bladensburg. Although considered a country mill, the Walker-Mowatt Mill was prosperous due to its location near Bladensburg. Originally known as Garrison s Landing, Bladensburg was an important port, shipping flour and tobacco. By the early nineteenth century, silting of the river made the water unnavigable. The proximity of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad may have allowed the Walker-Mowatt Mill to be more accessible and, subsequently, more prosperous. 2 According to research conducted in 1973, Walker and Cross owned the mill during the 1860s. Nicholas Stevens (of Bostwick) owned the mill in the 1870s. 3 The mill was documented on the 1878 Hopkins Map, with Stevens s dwelling located to the east. 4 However, none of these men appeared during chain-of-title research. 5 2 Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and Prince George s County Planning Department, Historic Sites and Districts Plan (1992), B-4. 3 Dwyer, Walker/Mowatt Mill-Site, 8:1. No information was found for Walker or Cross; neither could be located in the federal census. 4 G.M. Hopkins, Atlas of Fifteen Miles Around Washington, Including the County of Prince George Maryland (Philadelphia: G.M. Hopkins, C.E., 1878).
Number 8 Page 2 Furthermore, research in 1975 states that the Mowatts were the last private owners of the mill and owned the mill during the early twentieth century. 6 However, recent chain of title research indicates that no members of the Mowatt family were documented as owning this property. The Walker and Mowatt families were likely the operators of this mill, not the owners. The land on which this site is located, as well as a majority of the surrounding area, was originally owned by Charles B. Calvert, who owned Parcel 3 and Parcel 4. Calvert, a descendant of Lord Baltimore, descended from one of the nation s oldest families (among them the Stiers of Riversdale). Calvert was born in Riverdale, Maryland in 1808. A graduate of the University of Virginia at Charlottesville in 1827, Calvert engaged in agricultural pursuits and stock breeding. Calvert was a member of the State house of delegates in 1839, 1843, and 1844 and one of the early advocates for the establishment of the United States Department of Agriculture. He served as a Unionist to the thirty-seventh Congress (March 4, 1861 through March 3, 1863). Although Calvert aspired to be a successful land developer, he is best known for establishing the Maryland Agricultural College in the 1850s. This small college would evolve to become the University of Maryland. The current 16.42-acre property (Parcel 3) is composed of two parcels that were joined under the ownership of Edwin G. Paul at the beginning of the twentieth century. The first parcel, (A), which traces back to the platting of Lakeland, will be discussed first. Next, the second parcel, (B), which traces back to Charles B. Calvert, will be discussed. Finally, the property s history will be followed from the ownership of Edwin G. Paul when these two parcels were joined. Parcel (A) Lakeland was developed as a late-nineteenth-century resort community in northwest Prince George s County, northwest of the Walker-Mowatt Mill site. Edwin A. Newman, a Washington DC-based real estate developer, platted the community of Lakeland in 1890. 7 Newman designed the community as an exclusive resort area, which would be conveniently located to both Lake Artemesia and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. 8 Newman called the community Lakeland, on account of the beautiful lake which is to form a delightful feature of its landscape. This lake will cover an area of seven acres, will be fifteen feet deep, and is to be named Lake Artemesia in honor of Mrs. [Clara Artemesia] Newman. 9 The lake was originally dug as a gravel extraction pit in the 1860s by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. Water for the lake was supplied by more than a hundred springs and a pipe that brought water from the Paint Branch Creek to Lake Artemesia. Newman created 5 At the time of the 1870 census, Nicholas Stevens, born 1838, worked as a carpenter and lived with his wife Maria who was born c. 1842. The couple resided in Talbot County, Maryland, with their young daughter Nannie. 6 Several Mowatt families/family members appear in the 1900, 1910, and 1920 census; it could not be determined which family owned the mill. 7 Prince George s County Land Records, Circuit Court, Plat Book BB 5:51. 8 Susan Pearl, Lakeland (Rosenwald) School (PG: 66-13), State Historic Sites Inventory Form (1993), 8:1. 9 Outside of the City Limits, The Washington Post, 19 April 1891.

By April 1891, more than 72 people purchased property in Lakeland and had made over $135,000 in improvements. 10 Newman quickly improved the area by installing gas lights, curbs, gutters, wooden sidewalks, and dirt streets. 11 In 1892, Newman conveyed Lot 9 in Block 4 to John H. Flanagan. 12 In 1895, Flanagan conveyed the property, as well as additional lots in Lakeland, to Charles W. Leannarda. 13 Charles Leannarda, born 1846, lived with his younger wife Fannie and their five children in Washington, DC. 14 Here Leannarda operated a hotel, though its name and location are not known. In 1897, the property was conveyed back to the Flanagans. 15 The Flanagans owned the property until 1901 when the conveyed only Lot 9 in Block 4 to Emil A.H. Rinck for $400. Rinck was a policeman, residing in Washington, DC. 16 In 1902, following the death of Emil Rinck, the property was conveyed to Louise H. Rinck. 17 Information related to Louise H. Rinck could not be located. In 1903, Rinck conveyed the property to John H. Soule. 18 John H. Soule (born 1842) resided with his wife Hellen and daughter Edith in Washington, DC, where Soule was a pension attorney. In 1904, John Soule conveyed the property, now consisting of 14 acres, to his daughter Edith. 19 It is possible that these 14 acres of Lakeland did not develop as originally expected. Edith Soule immediately sold the property to Frederick G. Knipfel. 20 No information related to the Knipfels could be located. The Knipfels conveyed the property to Edwin G. Paul in 1905. 21 10 Outside of the City Limits, The Washington Post, 19 April 1891. 11 George Denny, Jr., Proud Past, Promising Future: Cities and Towns in Prince George s County, Maryland (Brentwood, MD: George D.

Number 8 Page 4 Parcel (B) In 1856, Charles N. Calvert, serving as executor of Charles B. Calvert s estate, conveyed the property to Richard G. Graf. 22 Information related to Richard G. Graf could not be located. Graf conveyed the property to Dr. Charles A. Wells and Mary L. Wells. 23 The Wellses sold the property to Thomas E. Dant and Mary Dant in 1869. 24 The transaction consisted of 64 acres. Dant, born 1835, and his wife, born 1845, lived in Washington, DC with their five children and Thomas s mother. Dant was employed as a hackman. 25 In 1887, the Dants conveyed the property to Eugene M. O Neill for $2,500. 26 O Neill was born in Ireland in 1851. He and his wife, Emma, lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In 1891, 62 acres were sold to David Montgomery Nesbit for $6,200. 27 Nesbit, born in 1843, was a real estate broker who brokered many of the land sales in this area of Prince George's County. The Walker-Mowatt Mill site was certainly an investment property for Nesbit, as it had been for many of the previous owners. In 1893, Nesbit served as the mortgager of the property for Frederick J. Brown. 28 Brown acted as the trustee for the estate of Charles Waters when he purchased this property from Nesbit. The property was purchased for $5,000. In 1907, following a defaulted mortgage, the property was conveyed by the trustee of the Safe Deposit and Trust Company to Edwin G. Paul. 29 Parcel (A +B) Edwin G. Paul, born 1864 in Pennsylvania, resided in Prince George s County with his wife, Alice and their daughter, also named Alice. Paul worked as a chief clerk in the newly formed United States Bureau of Reclamation. This agency, formed in 1902, is under the U.S. Department of the Interior within the U.S. Geological Survey and oversees water resource management. Mr. Edwin G. Paul maintained river stations within convenient reach of the city of Washington, these being mainly in the States of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. 30 Paul s interest in this property, with its access to the Paint Branch, was understandable. 22 Charles N.

Number 8 Page 5 In 1924, the Pauls conveyed 17.32 acres to Frederica Leverone. 31 That same day, Leverone received a mortgage from Alice Paul. 32 Leverone, born in Italy, resided in Washington, DC with her two sons, Anthony P., Louis S., and daughter, Serafina M. 33 In 1933 Frederica Leverone defaulted on her mortgage. This property was sold May 3 at a public auction for $510 to Doris N. Wolf. 34 That same day, Wolf conveyed the property to Anthony P. Leverone. 35 Wolf was a real estate agent who purchased high-priced real estate in Washington, DC. In 1932 Wolf acted as trustee in the purchase of the Harvard Hall building, located at 1560 Harvard Street, NW, and the Valley Vista building, located at 2032 Belmont Street, NW. It is not known why Wolf purchased this property at auction and the same day sold it. It is possible that the property was a purchased solely as a money-making exercise, or she was working as a purchasing agent for Leverone. The Anthony P. Leverone family resided in Berwyn, where Leverone worked as a gardener on a truck farm. Berwyn at this time was occupied by middle-class workers who were employed as gardeners, laundrymen, teachers, and repairmen. The Leverones probably saw this property as an investment tool that would yield returns if ever developed. Yet in 1934, Anthony P. Leverone and Ida J. Leverone conveyed the property to Ernest F. Williams and E. Lodge Hill. 36 Both Williams and Hill resided in Washington, DC Ernest F. Williams, born c. 1896, was an attorney practicing in the District of Columbia. E. Lodge Hill, born c. 1874, was a prominent real estate agent. Hill represented wealthy clients who purchased high-priced real estate in the city. In 1933, Hill acted as an agent in the $400,000 purchase of The Embassy apartment building, located at 1613 Harvard Street, NW. 37 In 1934, Hill once again purchased an apartment building for a client; this time an eightstory building at 1841 Columbia Road, NW for $525,000. 38 It is probable that Hill and Wolf were associated within Washington, DC real estate circles. This property was probably purchased by Williams and Hill as an investment property. In 1935, Williams and Hill conveyed the property back to Anthony P. Leverone. 39 31 Edwin G. Paul and Alice O.

Number 8 Page 6 In 1937, the Leverones conveyed the property to Arthur O. Branson and his wife, Mabel B. Branson. 40 Both of the Bransons worked in a dental office and lodged in Washington, DC. 41 No other information could be located regarding the Bransons. In 1937, the property was conveyed by the Bransons to Julia M. Higgins, a widow. 42 No information about Higgins could be located. In 1941, Higgins conveyed the property to James Koutsos. 43 Based on a lack of documentation in the 1930 U.S. Federal Census, it is plausible that James Koutsos and possibly Mrs. Koutsos immigrated to America from Greece after 1930. The Koutsos resided in Silver Spring, Maryland. 44 This property was certainly an investment for the family. However, in 1962, this property was condemned and awarded to The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission. 45 Little is known about the operations of the mill and its demise. The dates of its closing and razing are not known, thus it is not possible to determine who was responsible for it demolition. Currently, the is located at the north end of Anacostia River Park, east of the Paint Branch Creek. Paint Branch Creek is a tributary for the Anacostia River, which feeds into the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay. Anacostia Park is one of the largest recreation areas in the region and includes over 1,200 acres. The park includes picnic areas, basketball courts, tennis courts, baseball fields, and the Anacostia Park Pavilion which can be used for roller skating and special events. The park provides an 18-hole golf course, driving range, three concession-operated marinas, four boat clubs, and a public boat ramp providing access to the Anacostia River. 46 40 Anthony and Ida Leverone to Arthur and Mabel Branson, Prince George's County Land Records, 471:331. 41 1930 U.S. Federal Census, District of Columbia, Series 298, Page 1A, Enumeration District 244, Image 1000.0, Arthur Branson. 42 Arthur and Mabel Branson to Julia M.
