History[]
Often referred to as "Roger's study", this room was located on the first floor adjacent to the drawing room. Like most of the rooms on this floor, it was lavishly furnished and included a fireplace, a library, a wingback chair, a desk and at least one brandy snifter. Roger, and sometimes Elizabeth, often used the study when conducting business matters. When Willie Loomis briefly lived at Collinwood, he heard a story from David concerning the fabled Collins family jewels. He took to reading the family history books in the study to learn where the jewels might be located. Mrs. Johnson interrupted Willie's reading during her daily cleaning chores. She later told Jason McGuire how she found Willie reading about the family history.
19th century[]
In the late 1800s, this room was used as a study by Edward Collins. Following the passing of his grandmother, Edith Collins, a wake was held for her inside the study. It was an open-casket service attended only by direct family members. (Dark Shadows: 708)
