History
Bulloch Hall is a Greek Revival mansion in Roswell, Georgia, built in 1839–1840 by enslaved African Americans. It is one of several antebellum houses in the city and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971. This is where Martha Bulloch Roosevelt ("Mittie"), mother of Theodore Roosevelt, 26th U.S. president, lived as a child. It is also where she married Theodore Roosevelt's father, Theodore Roosevelt, Sr. Roosevelt himself visited the house in 1905. The descendants of Theodore Roosevelt and his three siblings, Anna, Elliott, and Corinne, are therefore descendants of Archibald Bulloch, the first governor of Georgia (1730–1777). It is now a historic house museum owned by the city of Roswell.
