Summary
Significance: Troth's Fortune is a well-preserved example of late seventeenth century vernacular architecture in Maryland. The principal facade faces the Choptank River, the early major means of access. The three bay Flemish bond structure dates from about 1686 to 1710 and has been enhanced by later compatible additions. The house is located on a site which encompasses farmland, wooded areas, and marshes near the banks of the Choptank.
