Town house rented by Jefferson edit

Leiper was not merely the general contractor of the pair of townhouses in Philadelphia, but the owner, and T. Jefferson was his tenant. The 1784-1794 Architectural Surveys published by the Mutual Assurance Company in 1976 shows policies 236 and 237 issued to TL on 1/17/1791 and detailing the structures. The policies were renewed to TL in various forms, becoming perpetual in November, 1807. TL is my great(5) grandfather and I grew up in Media, PA, just a few miles from his home and mills in Avondale, visiting many times as a child. InterpreDemon (talk) 02:52, 23 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
