The Montpelier mansion was the home of James
Madison, fourth President of the United States of America. He is known as the "Father
of the Constitution", author of the Bill of Rights and chief architect of the
American Republic.
The Bill of Rights plays a central role in American law
and government, and remains a fundamental symbol of the freedoms and culture of the
nation.
The mansion is being restored in size,
structure, form, and furnishings to the home that James and Dolley Madison knew in the
1820s. Glasgow
Steel Nail Co supplied traditionally L shaped, but strengthened, Floor Brads for use
