Abstract:

William Buckland is known for his architectural carving work in Richmond County, Virginia, but evidence of his work in Maryland has been questioned. Researchers at the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts in Winston-Salem, North Carolina reassessed Buckland’s career from 1771-1774 through a comparative study of six houses, two documented and four previously attributed to his shop.
