Historic Interest
Circa 1880 Victorian, built by Captain Edward Roberts for Philip Francis Thomas and Clintonia Wright May Thomas. The Honorable Philip Francis Thomas was governor of the State of Maryland from 1848 to 1851 and the first State Comptroller of the Treasury 1851 to 1853. Philip Francis was elected to the United States Congress in 1838 and served until 1840 when he declined re-nomination. Prior to his election to Governor in 1848 he served in the State House for four years. He served in a variety of posts in Maryland, including the collector of the Port of Baltimore, then as United States Commissioner of Patents and in 1860 as James Buchanan's Secretary of the Treasury. He only served for a matter of weeks in this position and resigned with other southern members of the Cabinet as the hostilities between North and South escalated. His son enlisted in the Confederate Army. In 1863 he served in the Maryland House and became a United States senator in 1867. However he was barred by the Senate as a person.

Easton's first building, the Third Haven Friends Meeting House, was constructed in 1682 at the headwaters of the Tred Avon River on a Native American trail. Located on Washington Street, within 3/4 of a mile of the Bishop's House. Shortly after the construction of the Meeting House, Maryland's General Assembly authorized a courthouse and the town began to grow. In 1788 the legislature renamed the town.
