Biographical Note
Built 1839-42 for Catherine Gamble, bride of Thomas Holmes Hagner, U.S. minister to the court of King George. The east end of the block was taken up with formal gardens that were said to be the site of the first Japonica tree in Florida (brought from England to Mrs. Hagner's home in Virginia). Dr. George W. Betton bought the property in 1880 and altered it in 1885. Later it was the home of the Carters, Shacklefords, and Knotts who altered the front in 1928. Given to the Department of State.
