DEEP COMMUNITY ROOTS
The Thomas Legacy
The Thomas Manor legacy spans six generations. The Quakers settled in Sandy Spring in 1720 and, within 10 years, freed their enslaved people. This made Sandy Spring one of the first free black settlements in the country. Many of the blacks went on to own property and became successful business owners, like Mr. Charles G. Thomas. Charles was one of the first black entrepreneurs in Montgomery County, and his business was located at what is now The Thomas Manor. Two generations later, granddaughter Mary Windham owns and manages the Manor as an homage to her ancestors and the entrepreneurial spirit of Montgomery County.
