The author became superintendent of the foundry of the Watertown Arsenal of the Ordnance Department of the U.S. Army during the First World War. He returned to government service during the Second World War serving with the Maritime Commission. While he was a real estate broker he collected a vast amount of information on the homes in Montgomery County. During this time he sold more than one million dollars worth of property and the information he acquired he used in this work. This book is now recognized as the principal source of historical information on the County, particularly for the topography and county estates. The wealth of architectural description and family lore, accompanied in many instances by anecdotes of early days, result in a work of wide general interest. Montgomery County, officially the County of Montgomery, is a county in the U.S. state of Maryland. As of the 2010 census, the population was 971,777, with a 2014 estimate putting the population at 1,030,447. It is the most populous county in Maryland. The county seat and largest municipality is Rockville, although the census-designated place of Germantown is the most populous place. Montgomery County is included in the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area. Most of the county's residents live in unincorporated locales, of which the most built up are Silver Spring, and Bethesda, though the incorporated cities of Rockville and Gaithersburg are also large population centers as are many smaller but significant places. As one of the most affluent counties in the United States, it also has the highest percentage (29.2%) of residents over 25 years of age who hold post-graduate degrees. In 2011, it was ranked by Forbes as the 10th richest in the United States, with a median household income of $92,213. Montgomery County, like other inner Washington, D.C. suburban counties, contains many major U.S. government offices, scientific research and learning centers, and business campuses, which provide a significant amount of revenue for the county.
