 Buena Vista between 1845 and 1847 named in honor of Zachary Taylor's success in his Mexican War. Without any surviving children, Clayton sold it to his nephew, James Clayton Douglas. The property then passed to Douglas' daughter, Constance Margaret Douglas, whose son, Clayton Douglas Buck, was born there. In 1914, Harriet Clayton Comages, acting as a trustee, sold Buena Vista to T. Coleman DuPont. DuPont's daughter, Alice Houndsfield DuPont, married T. Douglas Buck in 1921.
