The Tuleyries
Re: The Tuleyries

Graham Furber Blandy (1868–1926), a nephew of Mrs. Andrew Carnegie, around 1905, acquired The Tuleyries, near White Post, Virginia, and adjacent lands totaling over 900 acres. Blandy hired Mantle Fielding to restore and improve the mansion. The greatest care was taken to preserve the original beauty of the place. Mosey, a former slave, worked for years repairing the stone walls. Upon Blandy's death, his widow, Georgette Haven Borland (maiden; 1886–1939) inherited part of the Tuleyries estate. The remainder of the estate was bequeathed to the University of Virginia for an experimental farm. (see Blandy Experimental Farm and the Virginia State Arboretum)
