Tryon Palace: An Archtiect's View
Dis-Mything "People Were Shorter Back Then"

Tom and Surry are the names of two of the slaves owned by Governor William Tryon during his years in North Carolina. Were they working at Tryon Palace? No one knows for certain, but it is quite possible.
In 1766, while living in Brunswick Town before the Palace was built, Tryon hired (rented) and then purchased Tom from James Murray. Murray sent Tryon a bill of sale for Tom, "Who I rejoice to hear makes a good Servant to so good a Master."
There are no documents that say what Tom was doing from mid-1770 to July 1771, when Tryon lived at the Palace in New Bern. There is one last mention of Tom in 1773, when fire destroyed the Tryons' home at Fort George, New York.
When housekeeper Patty Hatch gave her statement about events the night of the fire, the official record states that she "asked where was the negro Tom, and she was told he was in the garret over the kitchen and she ran up and pulled him out of bed."
What do those bits and pieces tell us about Tom? Certainly not as much as we would like to know. From Murray's comment, it seems that Tryon was pleased with Tom's service, although we don't know what role he played in the household.

"When I was a boy on our annual summer vacation trips, the family car seemed to stop at every historic marker and monument. Maybe yours did, too. Dad thought it was "good for us," and I suppose in a way it was. Little did he suspect that it was also bad for us - that the lies we encountered on our trips across the United States subtly distorted our knowledge of the past and warped our view of the world." James Loewen in Lies Across America Below are the "Top Ten Silliest Historical Sites". Be warned, however, I use the word "silliest" in a very reserved sense. On one hand, these sites are indeed silly - they distort and mangle the historical truth. On the other hand, however, they are also harmful and dangerous to those who accept their teachings as fact and truth. You have been warned:
