I'm not related but I bought the original Shugars' house in Hampstead, Md in March 1999.The deed says it was built in 1900 by Wm H. Shugars and was passed/sold to another Shugars family member in 1912.I imagine William Shugars was born in this house in 1916.They sold this house in 1939 to James and Helen Bentz and I bought it after their deaths from their 4 children in 1999.
When I stripped a porch post and also on the back of some baseboard molding in the house, I found stamped in ink, "Gordon Van-Tine (kit house company) NTFY Wm. H. Shugars".This shows this house or just the molding was ordered from the Gordon Van-tine Company by Mr. Shugars.These house came by rail.i'm curious about the house's history.but you're welcome to pictures of this original Shugars home.
Thank you!
