This study will concentrate on the Victorian pattern-book house plans of R.W. Shoppell and their use in Prince George’s County, Maryland; it will serve as an introduction to the recent survey of Sears houses in the same area of the County. It is part of the on-going research projects of the Prince George’s Historic Preservation Commission, implemented by the Planning Department of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission with a matching grant from the Certified Local Government Program of the Maryland Historical Trust.
