From Revolutionary War hero James Mayo Hoge, to the grandeur of General James Hoge, to the rebirth of the estate in the 21st century, this film takes you through centuries of love, sacrifice, and stewardship. Walk the halls, hear the whispers, and discover how one family preserved their legacy across time.
