  • The Pope-Mustard House - Smyrna, Delaware

    Mustard Houses, Smyrna 1930's

    The dwelling was originally a two story house with a wing. It was built in 1790 for Colonel Charles Pope, on West Mt.Vernon Street. Colonel Pope served in the Revolutionary War. John Mustard, co-owner of the Peterson-Mustard Tannery, purchased the home in 1837. In 1850 the house was completely remodeled, resulting in what it looks like today. The tannery was located approximately one block north of the house.
