Josh has really been digging into our ancestry since his grandmother passed away last winter. It has brought us to many graveyards and old buildings. In fact, every time Josh says we are going on an adventure the kids have to ask if we are stopping by any cemeteries on the way because that happens about 9 out of 10 times these days, ha!
From what I could gather, this church used to house some soldiers in the Civil War.
Some of the soldiers carved their initials into the walls of the church.
This particular stop was really neat. This church building is the supposed site of George Washington's wedding, and also Josh's great-great-something's wedding. His ancestors were apparently friends with the Washington's. Although we didn't find any headstones with our ancestors names on them this time, it was a trip well worth the time.
