SOTTERLEY PLANTATION ..oldest plantation in Maryland

[@peterschief9778]

Wow what a gem. Thanx from Australia

I was surprised that you didn't know everything about farming equipment. Just when I was starting to think you knew everything. 😉 Thank you for the videos. I've learned so much from you.

Ikr. I've learned so much from videos that are fun to watch.

Cool place! I read that the names Satterlee and Sotterly are actually the same family line in early England, both sharing the same coats of arms.

[@VATravels]

Oh wow interesting. I can see that.

Here's something interesting I found below that shows the Platers owned an estate after it was owned by the Sotterlys in Suffolk, England in the 1400s. Wow! And the Sotterly Plantation in MD was once owned by George Plater. Weird🤔: St Margaret is a classic example of an estate church and it has been owned by just three families since the Norman Conquest. The first owners of the estate were the Bigot family when the first Bigot, Roger, later took the surname of Sotterley. And it is almost certain that his son Edward, who served as the Sheriff of Suffolk at the time, built St Margaret’s church. The Sotterley family held the estate and church until the War of the Roses. After that, when Edward IV took the throne, he confiscated their estate and gave it to Thomas Playters, sometime between 1461 and 1469.The date 1469 is engraved on the Playter coat of arms in the stained glass of a south center window. But the real highlight to see in St Margaret’s is the baroque decorated tomb of Sir Thomas Playters, who died in 1638. It is truly considered one of Suffolk’s finest 17th-century monuments.

Thanks for looking that up and I appreciate all of the information. They have quite the family history. Would love to go over there and visit sometime. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent video, it would be worth it to go back when they complete the upstairs restoration

[@VATravels]

Yeah, I would definitely go back.
