Could this be it? The home of Andrew Jackson? (I'm curious about the obvious fake facade on what appears to be a red brick house.)

Well, in 18 and 14, we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Missisip
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we met the bloody British in the town of New Orleans



Also -- out of idle curiosity -- is that the same melody as The Beverly Hillbillies ?

Well, I see that Johnny Horton recorded The Battle of New Orleans -- which is where I started all that googling.

Hey, Tico. No, Johnny Horton's song ain't the same tune as the Beverly Hillbillies. You got the right name, gal. Now just name the city and state.

critics of the colonel said that his collection of cabinet members was so informal, that they referred to it as the kitchen cabinet.

(please change hing to hint)

Time for me to clean up for the night, so I'll leave it for someone else to zero in on your clues.

Good night, Letty.

Hey, Dutchy. I really thought that Tico/Ti had it, but she gave up. If you will look at all the hints, I'm certain that you will know. Thanks for playing.

another hint, Dutchy. This man, who has already been identified by Tico, is pictured on one denomination of American paper money.

The only thing left to identify, is the city and state where The Hermitage is located.

for tico

Quote:
In 1834, while he was in Washington, the Hermitage was severely damaged by fire. Jackson had the house rebuilt by 1837, and the front of the home was painted white to conceal the smoke that blackened the bricks.

Surely, ehBeth. Someone will get it now. All that is left is the city and the state.

That's it, Dutchy. Andrew Jackson has a very interesting background, both good and bad, as all American presidents have had.

Your turn, honey.
