Susan, Thank You for sharing that!! Williamsburg has always been one of my favorite places to visit, thought about moving there several times before learning that I had several ancestors who actually lived there. Always feels a bit like coming home. I cannot wait to visit again this spring.

Susan, if you take a look at my website, it will give you an idea of the Williamsburg buildings that are attatched to our Maupin family. http://members.cox.net/oldva-families/Page1.html I have not finished it and need to work more on it, but, should help a bit.
