Some explanation for why Needwood (the estate) is redirected to Derwood, Maryland would be very helpful. Thanks. --Tesscass (talk) 17:48, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. For starters, there is no entry on this estate. Further, now that you mention it, it is probable the wrong location has been given for the estate and that it is located in Frederick and not Montgomery County. I had found Needwood Dr, Needwood Lake (man-made in the 1960s) and Needwood Golf Course in Derwood, assuming this was its historic location. Can you verify and put in the correct or most appropriate redirect? Thanks.Odin 85th gen (talk) 18:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I can't correct it because I don't know anything about it. I was confused by the link and hoped someone with more knowledge would update it. Its probably better left as a redlink, but may be like this instead: [[Needwood (estate)|Needwood]]. However, if its not likely to be notable enough, then its best not to link it instead of linking to a page that doesn't mention it at all. --Tesscass (talk) 18:48, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

For now, I'll unlink it. --Tesscass (talk) 18:50, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Researched Needwood property in Frederick County at is local history library. It seems named after an English estate, probably by pioneer teacher Bartholomew Booth, who sold the property to this man, who bequeathed it to two sons and a daughter. Thus, several descendants constructed houses named "Needwood" on the tract. The house in which Gov. Thomas Sim Lee and his Congressman son John Lee lived was called Old Needwood. The historic (but unlisted) structure that remains today was constructed by his grandson, also named Thomas Sim Lee. I haven't yet found the link to the (I believe man-made) Needwood Lake in Montgomery County, although this Thomas Sim Lee was briefly a resident of that county, and also owned considerable property (and resided for a time) in the District of Columbia's Georgetown section.Jweaver28 (talk) 23:52, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
