Sorry to disagree, Bill. I refer to an earlier post that I did. PA construction workers would certainly not be working in lower Manhattan. Seems that his excellency, George Washington's name was pretty well spread around the colonies. viz: "Washington Square is in center city Philadelphia. It's the site of the mass grave and has a memorial with an eternal flame to the memory of unknown patriots buried there. Fort Washington is in the suburban Philadelphia area of Montgomery County, PA. Quite a distance from center city.
