| Let us take you through Virginia's Northern Neck where you will discover some important but little known colonial history. Trace the Washington, Lee, Carter, and Ball families from the original immigrants to their famous descendents. Your self-guided tour will include visits to several Lee ancestral homes and locales, including Ditchley, Burnt House Field, Menokin, and Stratford Hall, the birthplace of Robert E. Lee. You will learn about Robert "King" Carter and the grand colonial church he commissioned (Historic Christ Church). You'll get to know Mary Ball, mother of our first president, by visiting the Mary Ball Museum, Yeocomico Church, her childhood parish, and the George Washington Birthplace. Along the way, you will look in on the colonial courthouse towns of four county seats. Contact us for a free customized trip design. |
