Although I didn't remember that I've read "Liberty Hall" in Goldsmith's "She Stoops to Conquer" apparently the pedigree starts there.
"Mr. Marlow—Mr. Hastings—gentlemen—pray be under no constraint in this house. This is Liberty-hall, gentlemen. You may do just as you please here."—Oliver Goldsmith, She Stoops to Conquer
