Mount Vernon Restoration Led by Women of Virginia Era
Mount Vernon, once dull and decayed, was saved by Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham and the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association. The group raised 200000 to purchase and restore George Washingtons home, earning tax exemption from Virginia and staffing the estate with a largely female organization during annual visits and ceremonies.
