![]() | A fact from Highland (James Monroe house) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the
Did you know column on 11 July 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:
| ![]() |
Searched for about an hour trying to find a picture of the house in the public domain. I'm starting to believe it may be one of the least photographed presidential homes in history. If someone could provide an image of the house, that'd be fantastic, be it from some other source or driving up and snapping a picture. Worse comes to worse, I'll have a chance in August to do so myself, but I'll hope for one of my fellow Wikipedians to do so before hand. ~ The Rebel At ~ 18:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
How many slaves did Monroe own? Funny, there's no mention of that in this page, Monroe's page, or the external sites. Yet he was a Virginian plantation owner and based on Washington, Madison and his neighbor Jefferson's household staff composition, slaves had to be somewheres. Truth is not selective, people are. 122.26.128.126 05:45, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Moved to Highland (James Monroe house) to make disambiguation consistent with Monroe's other Virginia property. See general agreement below to rename this article, and the nom appears to be amenable to "Highland" as much as to "James Monroe's Highland". Have a Great Day and Happy Publishing!

Ash Lawn–Highland → James Monroe's Highland – The name of this historic house museum was officially changed in April of 2016. See highland.org for additional information. As the content of the page suggests, Ash Lawn was a name given to the property after Monroe sold it.

The title Highland (James Monroe house) is incorrect. His house burned down in the 1800's. Highland was his estate and home, but there is no original house that remains. It should read Highland (James Monroe estate) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbuoscio ( talk • contribs) 18:22, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
