Tuckahoe," Nehemiah Addison Baker House, 12601 River Road, Richmond, Virginia, 1936: A Captivating Blend of History and Nature This evocative lantern slide, captured by the renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1936, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history and timeless beauty of the "Tuckahoe" Nehemiah Addison Baker house located at 12601 River Road in Henrico County, Virginia. Built on the banks of the James River, this H-plan, Georgian, white, wood-framed house was first erected by Thomas Randolph around 1720, with subsequent additions by William Randolph III in 1740. The house, steeped in history, was later acquired by Nehemiah Addison and Isabelle Baker in 1935. The photograph showcases the house's elegant architecture, framed by lush greenery and a maze-like hedge. The sprawling grounds, dotted with vibrant plants and trees, provide a serene backdrop that speaks to the area's agricultural heritage. The intricately designed lantern slide, hand-colored between 1930 and 1940, offers a stunning visual representation of the house and its surroundings, transporting us back in time to the thirties. The "Tuckahoe" house, with its storied past and picturesque setting, stands as a testament to the enduring allure of America's colonial history and the beauty of its natural landscapes. This image, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our nation's heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from. The Library of Congress, a vital repository of American history, holds this precious piece of our collective past, ensuring that it remains accessible to scholars, historians, and anyone with an interest in the rich tapestry of American history.
