- Peter_Gorman_(businessman) abstract "Peter Gorman was one of the first contractors of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. His son Arthur Pue Gorman would go on to become a Senator and Pioneer in American Baseball. His other son William Henry Gorman would become a prominent businessman.Gorman's parent's John Gorman and McDonald, came from Northern Ireland in 1794 to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and later Baltimore, Maryland working in the cattle business. Gorman married Elizabeth Browne, daughter of John Riggs Browne who owned the farmstead called \"Good Fellowship\" dating back to the original land grant by Cecilius Calvert, 2nd Baron Baltimore. In the 1840s Gorman built a two story Granite house where his first son Arthur was born. After completing his railroad contract, he purchased the 500 acre estate \"Fairview\" in North Laurel from Dr. Charles Griffith Worthington. The property was part of \"Warfiled's Range\", containing a log cabin built around 1696 that survived until an arson fire in 2001 when relocated to accommodate the \"Warfield's Range\" development. He built a house and library at the site shortly before his death. The house burned down in 1890 and a new Queen Anne structure was built in its place. A school house (No.4) was also situated on the site in 1860. Fairview stayed in the family until the 1970s where a Healy painted portrait of young Peter Gorman hung. He had five children, naming his first son Arthur Pue after his doctor and tutor Dr. Arthur Pue. The 1850 census recorded Gorman as owning at least one slave.Gorman was the contractor for the portion of the B&O railroad between Ellicott Mills and Woodstock, Maryland. In 1834 during labor disputes between Irish and German railroad workers John Gorman was beat nearly to death along with John Watson. Gorman was spared. The next evening on 20 November 1834, Watson, and William Mercer were killed by workers on the line between Savage and LaurelIn 1850, William T. Hamilton and General Edward Hammond were called upon to give 11‑year old Arthur Pue a page position in Washington D.C. Gorman and his younger son William Henry Gorman (1843–1915) were the proprietors of several quarries in Laurel that supplied granite for the U.S. Treasury Building and the United States Capitol, and bridges for the B&O Railroad.Gorman was captured on a business trip South in 1860 and sent to Libby Prison. He died shortly after his release.".
