}}James W. McCulloh (McCulloch) (1789–1861) was an American politician from Baltimore.[2]

Early life

McCulloh and partner Soloman Birkhead were in business in Baltimore as early as 1799 operating McCulloh & Birkhead.[3][4] McCulloh later worked for the George Williams Counting House, part of the Second Bank of the United States, as a cashier who was twice indicted for conspiracy. He was the center of the landmark Supreme Court case McCulloch v. Maryland for giving himself loans for stocks.

James W. McCulloh bought land that was part of the 5000 acre "Taylor's Forest" surveyed in 1678. He built a stone farmhouse on his 511 acre site between 1818-1825 for himself. After defending several charges of conspiracy, the property was sold to John Lewis Buchanan in 1825 and again in 1825 to his partner's son Dr. Lennox Birkhead. The estate named Hilton is now in use by Community College of Baltimore County.[5]

McCulloh served as Comptroller of the US Treasury from 1842-1849[6]
