A later view of Weston (taken about 1900-1920) shows the western outbuilding that is only barely visible in the 1870s photograph. The photograph was loaned to us by Esther Charvat, whose aunt, Mary (Dolin) Jones lived at Weston from the later 1800s to the 1920s. Mary had told Esther that this outbuilding once was used as a schoolhouse. Appearance and placement suggest this structure combined with the one on the east end of the house as a symmetrical pair flanking the mansion. In the late 1780s, this classic Georgian layout would have been the height of fashion, declaring the owners' wealth and social status to all who approached the plantation.
