In 1890, the Norfolk Company, a newly established land company, purchased Ghent as a

purpose of buying, selling, improving, and developing real estate in Norfolk, with Theodore H.
Price, Alfred P. Thom, and John H. Dingee as its officers. The company was a sub-corporation
of Blake, Boissevain and Company, a merger of Dutch, New York and London interests. While
Blake, Boissevain and Company was primarily involved in the financing of railroads in America;

Virginia Land Company
, had as its major objective the development of lands throughout Virginia. The Norfolk Company, the Ghent-Norfolk Company, and the Portsmouth Company were all local subsidiaries of the
Virginia Land Company
