• Notes

  Timeline 1725-26 Mann Page I begins construction of the Rosewell mansion. 1730 Mann Page I dies, bequeathing life rights to the mansion and house tract to his widow, Judith. 1737 Judith Carter Page receives a bequest from the estate of her father, Robert Carter, and continues house construction. 1737 Mann Page II inherits his parents' estate and completes the Rosewell mansion. 1765 Mann Page II and family leave Rosewell for Mannfield. Their eldest son, John, moves into Rosewell with his wife, Frances Burwell Page. 1771 John Page begins renovation and redecoration of Rosewell. He becomes a member of the House of Burgesses. 1808 John Page dies and his second wife, Margaret, inherits the 750-acre Rosewell house tract and numerous slaves. She resides in Williamsburg. 1837 Thomas B. Booth buys Rosewell from John Page's executors. 1847 Thomas B. Booth conveys Rosewell to John T. Catlett, his cousin. 1850-51 Catlett takes up residence at Rosewell and enhances the value of the buildings. 1853 John T. Catlett sells Rosewell to Josiah L. Deans. ca. 1881 Josiah L. Deans dies. Frederick Deans and siblings agree to oversee the care of Rosewell for two years. 1884 Deans siblings subdivide the property and attempt to sell Rosewell. 1888 Philip Nelson Page purchases Rosewell in its entirety but fails to pay for the property and it reverts back to the Deans family. 1904 Ellen Y. Taylor (daughter of Josiah L. Deans) and her husband, Judge Fielding Taylor, are in possession of 247.17 acres of Rosewell, that portion which contains the mansion. 1916 The mansion is gutted by fire. "The three surviving brothers, MANN, JOHN, and ROBERT, became the heads, respectively, of the three branches of the Page family in Virginia, viz: (1) ROSEWELL, also called the White Pages. (2) NORTH END, or Black Pages. (3) BROADNECK Pages. The latter removed to Clarke County, Va." From page 66 of the Genealogy of the Page Family in Virginia by Richard Channing Moore Page.
