• Notes

  He was US Marshall for the District of Columbia for several terms, and was with President Madison when the British burned the Capitol in the War of 1812. After the Capitol was repossessed, Tench Ringgold was one of the three comissioners appointed to rebuild the public buildings in Washington destroyed by the British. This included restoration of the Capitol. He owned a leather factory in Washington, and rented ferries and taverns in the town of Havre De Grace.
