John Potts, secretary of the Potomac Canal Company, had begun construction between 1799 and 1802, but ran into financial problems. Massachusetts born merchant, freemason and city councillor Jonathan Swift acquired the property, which he called "Belle Aire" and where he lived before his death in August 1824. While one chatty book of legends claimed Mason acquired Colross during a game of cards with Lee Massey Alexander, a later archeological report which examined Deed Book V-2:186 indicated a more traditional purchase. Mason renamed the property Colross (probably after a Scottish manor) added a brick wall around the property, as well as added rooms and a Greek Revival style portico. His brother Richard Chichester Mason, by contrast, moved his medical practice to his Fairfax County property and would serve several terms as one of Fairfax County's delegates in the Virginia House of Delegates.

When she was unable to sell the property, Betsey transferred ownership on November 7, 1859, to her sons John "Frank" Francis Mason and Arthur "Pen" Pendleton Mason. During the Civil War, Union forces occupied Colross and used its grounds for a large tent hospital. Betsey Mason returned to Colross after the conflict and lived with her daughter Caroline and another woman named T.T. Rhett, possibly related to the husband of her daughter Matilda (who died in 1871, as did her mother).

Thomson F. Mason's lifetime, indicates his household included sixteen people: three white males, eight white females and five slaves (only one, a girl, younger than 10).
329:. However, tragedy dogged the family, as his eldest son died at West Point in 1841, then his son Arthur Clapham died in 1844, and three servants accidentally drowned in the Potomac river. After three daughters married in 1850 (Sally, Ann Graham and Matilda), the Mason household only included sons John F. and Arthur Mason, and their sisters Caroline.

When this man's grandfather George Mason died on
October 7, 1792, Mason's father Thomson inherited a portion of the Gunston Hall estate, on which his father had helped him to build a house. Around 1817, Mason's father Thomson Mason divided the property into two plantations: Dogue Run farm for Mason's
