THE WASHINGTONS AND THEIR COLONIAL HOMES IN WEST VIRGINIA. BY MYNNA THRUSTON George Washington was sixteen and wanted to go to sea. His half-brother, Lawrence, with whom he wa~ staying, thought it might be a good way for him to sef~ the world. His trunk was already aboard the vessel that lay in the river beyond the lawn at Mount 'l ernon. A ·mess·age arrived from his Mother at Ferry Farm be­ lo·w Fredericksburg, which changed his plans. She had written to her half-brother in England, Joseph Ball, telling him of the plan for young George. His U·ncle was strongly against it. "They might treat the boy like a dog if he went to sea before the mast, better ap­ prentice him to a tinker." So the little trunk was brought ashore, and he settled do-\vn to his studies at Mount Vernon, supervised by his brother, Lawrence, who took great interest in them.

Since Friends of Happy Retreat is a of preparing this plan. non-profit corporation and does not pay taxes, we cannot avail ourselves of these credits directly.

    VOLUME 9 ISSUE 2 MIMBRES MESSENGER PAGE 1 A FREE COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2017 MIMBRES MESSENGER MIMBRES RESIDENT - RELATIVE OF OUR FIRST PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON By Kate Brown I grew up always knowing that my mother, who during my childhood was known as Gerry Brown, had begun her life with the name Glenora Washington. George Washington, who had no biological children, was my 5th great uncle. We are descended from his brother John Augustine Washington. As a child, I grew to expect a battle at school, usually around George Washington’s birthday, when I would declare my- self his relative. Derision, or course, was the result. I may have complained to my grandma Gladys and she sent me a document on carbon paper that had a life-long effect on me: The Washington Family, George and three of his brothers, Charles, Samuel & John Augustine, settled in the Shenando- ah Valley, in Jefferson County, then Virginia. As a young man, George Washington surveyed in the area and bought land there. His three brothers followed. The town was named after brother Charles. I visited Charles Town, West Virginia, a stone's throw from Harper's Ferry, for the first time in the 1980s. My mother had retired and wanted us all to visit the grand houses built by the Washington brothers in Jefferson County. Her fa- ther, Nathaniel Washington, had spent his boyhood and youth at Claymont Court, a vast plantation house built in 1820 by my disappointed 4th great grandfather, Bushrod Corbin Washington, who did not inherit Mount Vernon. The man- sion, for nearly two hundred years, has been known as “Bushrod’s Folly”.
