It is located at 247 King George Street and was built between 1739 and 1742 for Dr. William Stephenson.[1] It changed hands and in 1747, Daniel Cheston leased the property to Provincial Governor of Maryland, Samuel Ogle, giving the building its namesake.[1] Ogle maintained two properties in the Province, the other being the Belair Mansion in nearby Collington, Maryland.[2]
