Stonum, also called Stoneham or the George Read House, is a historic house at 900 Washington Avenue in New Castle, Delaware. Its main section built about 1750, it was a tenant farm of George Read (1733-1798), a signer of the Declaration of Independence. His advocacy enabled Delaware to become the first state ratifying the declaration. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1973, based on mis-information that George Read lived here. It is the only building standing associated with this Founding Father.
