Clean Drinking Manor was situated between the Chevy Chase Lake and Forest Glen, and the grant, dating from October 1, 1700, was originally comprised of 1,400 acres. The Manor that stood in 1902 was erected by Charles Jones, Gent., in 1750, but the same ground had been occupied by the Coates family since 1680 and passed to the Jones family some time previous to 1750. The Jones family are descended from the Coates by the marriage of Charles Jones, Gent., to Elizabeth Coates.
