12. Site of 17th-century brick building.

In 1934 brick foundations of a small 17th-century building were

unearthed about 180 feet southeast of the Washington family burying

ground. One glass bottle seal found near the building site was inscribed

with the name "John Washington." The structure was probably an

outbuilding which belonged to George Washington's great-grandfather.
