Notes
  • Significance: The Lowber House, constructed in 1774, is a typical Delaware, three-bay, hall-and-parlor farmhouse. The southern, gable end of this brick structure bears the initials of its builder, Matthew Lowber, and the construction date. The interior of this single-pile dwelling retains its original, fully-panelled, fireplace end wall, cornice, and chair rail trim. Until 1845, the Lowber House was the only known dwelling at the crossroads, which later became the site of the town of Magnolia.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-33
  • Survey number: HABS DE-182
