Little has changed in the open spaces of carroll Branch farm since 1784, the year John Shepperd purchased the land from the State of Maryland, which had seized My Lady's Manor during the Revolutionary War. It was held by Shepperd's descendants until the 1920's, then purchased in 1958 from retiring dairy farmers by Ike and Harriet Iglehart, who expanded it's acreage for preservation and carefully tended to its 250 year old turf and harvest fields. None have been more privileged by natural abundance, the pleasure of cultivation, or the grandeur of our beloved Maryland than those who have resided here. May that legacy continue....
