General Notes: Husband - Nathaniel Fitz-Randolph


He donated, Jan. 25, 1753, to Princeton College the land on which Nassau Hall was built. He gave in addition £20 in cash and his services in obtaining subscriptions for the hall.
On a slab in the vestibule of Holden Hall, Princeton is inscribed:
"Near this spot lie the remains of Nathaniel Fitz-Randolph the generous giver of the land upon which the original buildings of the University were erected." Below are the Randolph or Fitz-Randolph Arms with the inscription: "In 'Agro 'Jacet Nostro Immo Suo."
