Description From Owner:
- Irishman Joseph Neily settled near here in 1768. The place was first called Farmington. It was later named to honour Montagu Wilmot, who was Lt.-Gov. from 1763 to his death in 1766.
- Although Wilmot died in office, the Assembly refused to pay for his state funeral, which cost £245.
