Notes
  • 1992 Charles E. Peterson Prize, Entry
  • Significance: Goodwood Plantation was established near Tallahassee, Florida by Hardy Croom on a section of the Lafayette Grant in 1836. Following his death in 1837, his brother Bryan Croom moved to this property and built the main house between 1839 and 1843. Goodwood was made the social capital of Tallahassee by Arvah Hopkins, a prominent local merchant, who bought the plantation in 1858. Following his death, the property was bought by Dr. William Lamb Arrowsmith, a soldier of fortune, who was the personal physician of Giuseppe Garibaldi, the uniter of Italy. He died in 1886 and his wife remained at Goodwood until 1911 when she sold the property to Fannie Tiers, who was reputed to be the richest woman in America. She was responsible for most of the cottages and additions at Goodwood. These cottages were designed by Bache Brown, an Atlanta architect who was also her son in-law. The Girl's cottage was one of these and was built sometime between 1913 and 1920. The current kitchen and bathroom were added in the late 1940's or early 1950's. State Senator William Hodges bought Goodwood in 1925 and restored it to its former social glory. After the Leon Hotel burned down, Hodges invited several legislators to stay in the cottages. Hodges died in 1940 and his wife, Margaret E. Wilson, married Thomas Hood in 1947. She died in 1978 and Hood died in 1990. Today, Barnett Bank is in charge of the Margaret E. Wilson Foundation, so named after the plantation's longest resident.
