Historic Kelley Family Home
By Jane Day
Sentinel Woman's Editor
Looking out across the high
open fields of northwest Mont
gomery with the blue outline of
the Virginia hills on one side
and the familiar hump of Sugar
loaf on the other, stands Pleas
ant Hills, the 200-year old home
of Mrs. Thomas C. Kelley.
The colonial brick structure
built about 1762 has been in the
Kelley family for 100 years.
The fifth generation of Kelleys
—grandchildren of Mrs. Kelley
and the late Judge Kelley—now
is growing up there.
Located a short distance
above Damestown, Pleasant
Hills also is a productive 540-
acre farm. Mrs. Kelley's son,
John Thomas Kelley 111, who
lives in a smaller house on the
place with his wife and children,
crops the land and grazes Here
ford cattle.
The stately, three-story center
portion of the house with white
portico and massive end chim
neys form the original part.
Wings were added later with
brick from the old slave quar
ters on the farm. Mrs. Kelley
says that when she came to
the house as a bride 35 years
ago the foundations of these
old quarters were still visible.
The front door opens into a
small entrance hall with a
charming stairway which goes
up three flights. The hallway
is furnished with a grand |
father's clock and a Virginia
sofa. On the right it leads to an}
office and to the left a small;
sitting room and dining room,
each with corner fireplaces. A
formal living room stretches
across the back.
Here, before the fireplace are

; and Mrs. Kelley points out they
are somewhat unusual in that
there are no arms—“to accom
modate the ladies' full skirts.”
Interior walls are all bride
and nearly two feet thick. Old
random-width floors, chairrails
and the solid panel inside shut
ters or "blinds” at every win
dow are among the distinctive
early features of the house.
The wing to the west, built in
1918, contains a living room and
upstairs bedroom.
The east wing is the kitchen,
added about 1900. Mrs. Kelley
says the original kitchen was a
separate building Just far
enough apart from the main

apartment consisting of bed
room, sitting room and kitchen
ette.

The old marble counter, com
plete with original blown soda
glasses, may look familiar to
long-time Montgomery County
residents. It came from the old
drug store in the center of Rock
ville which belonged to Dr. Wil

The Kelleys bought the equip
