It served as the Revolutionary Headquarters of General George Washington from 20th October until 2nd November, 1777. Prominent furniture makers in Philadelphia at this time hailed from various backgrounds. Joseph Barry (1757-1838) a noted cabinet maker in Philadelphia was an Irish-born emigrant. Thomas Jefferson periodically used Barry’s services during his vice presidential years in Philadelphia. Nicholas Bernard (d. 1789), Hercules Courtenay (b. 1739) and Henry Connelly (1770-1826) working in Philadelphia were all of Irish descent. These craftsmen were known for their exquisite designs, skilled craftsmanship, and contributions to Philadelphia’s thriving furniture industry. The influence of Irish makers on eighteenth century Philadelphia furniture is exemplified in the typically Irish rope twist legs found in lot 100.
