Washington's Parents and Early Virginia Ironmaking
Article chronicles George Washington born in Westmoreland county Virginia and outlines his father Augustine Washington's involvement in Accokeek furnace and Principe iron works, along with Mary Ball as his mother and the family’s English connections and misrepresented history. It also touches on etymology of cider cyder and a light note on heredity and a brief legislative budget item about gypsy moth funding.
