The Governor John Walter Smith House in Snow Hill, Maryland is an unusually large and elaborate example of the Queen Anne Style of domestic architecture. It was built in 1889-90 for local landowner John Walter Smith, who was later a United States Representative, Governor of Maryland and United States Senator. The house retains its interior millwork and unusual Art Nouveau stained glass windows[2].
