Notes for JUDGE; PROFESSOR NATHANIEL BEVERLEY TUCKER:

St. George Tucker House: "Unique among documents pertaining to the town's original buildings is a 1798 agreement between Tucker and local painter Jeremiah Satterwhite that specifies the paint scheme to be used on the house. Today the St. George Tucker House has been pained in the same coulors - 'Spanish brown, pure White, Chocolate, dark brick, yellow Ochre, straw-colour, and pale Stone colour.' "The first floor windows in the center part, which had been realigned around 1830, were returned to their original configurations during the restoration of 1930-1931. At the same time, conventional sash replaced triple-hung window sash, a favorite Jeffersonian feature added in the side extensions during the early nineteenth century. The original kitchen, once located to the extreme west of the complex, had been replaced by a two-story structure on the same foundations. This early form was reconstructed. The nineteenth-century office in the front yard was demolished."

He was familiar with the Arts and Sciences, With a cultivated taste for Poetry. In public affairs he was vigilant and enlightened, In private life his affections were constant and conspicuous. In all things upright and faithful, At all times firm and constant. This tomb is erected by his children and his nephews, And by his beloved wife, in memory of the benevolence and benignity Of his admirable life and of his uprightness and virtue, As an expression of their sorrow.

There was an alleged scandal. Judith's younger sister, Nancy, was said to have had an affair with Richard and became pregnant. This was kept secret even from close family members. When the child arrived, delivered at another plantation by servants, it was either born dead or was killed, and the whole affair was hushed up. Nevertheless, ugly rumors circulated, so to clear up the matter, Richard, who was accused of snuffing out the baby's life, stood trial for murder. He was acquitted, as was Nancy, by a brilliant defense devised by none other than Patrick Henry. Judith Randolph, however, later had a son who was born deaf. Deeply religious, she believed that in keeping quiet about what actually had transpired, the Lord was using this deafness to punish her, and she lived for years with guilt. Richard later died unexpectedly, and some have offered he may have been poisoned by Judith."
