Shared note

Ninian Beall was one of the founders of Georgetown, and built Dunbarton Oaks. Side-Lights on Maryland History states, "Although Ninian Beall is said to have come from Fifeshire, my own researches incline to the Stirlinshire idea, in which was situated the Parish of St. Ninian." It further adds that Ninian fought against Oliver Cromwell's army in the battle of Dunbar, which led to a rout of the Scots, and probably occasioned Ninian's emigration to Maryland.

A part of the land Ninian left to his son George became Georgetown.
