Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
An English woman named Susanna Wright owned The Wright’s Ferry Mansion, originally built in 1738. A colonist, Susanna Wright, was a seasoned member of the literati, alongside the likes of James Logan, Benjamin Franklin, and Charles Thomson. The house, having been restored by The von Hess Foundation, boasts of being the only Pennsylvania English Quaker house that restricted its furnishings exclusively to the first half of the eighteenth century. Complementing its elegant Philadelphia William and Mary and Queen Anne fittings with austere bare scrubbed floors and windows devoid of any drapery, the house is an apt representation of early eighteenth-century America.
