    I'm a 74 year old history buff and retired architect. I love your passion and wish I was 40 years younger and traveling with you every weekend to another
    Virginia landmark. Great job as usual.

    Thank you, Chris! The culmination of a life long dream to see this small manor house!!! Worshipped it since childhood! Almost found it in the mid-70's--but ran out of daylight...Excellent footage of the tour today! Loved it!!!😊❤️

    Thank you so much for this; I am a "cousin" descendant and I did not know about this museum.🎉

    Very nice video! We are heading to Yorktown and Port Royal for vacation this week and your videos are very helpful.

    Enjoyed another one of your videos - had to go look up more on Francis Lightfoot Lee. Glad you whipped out your drone. Keep up great work!

    Mount Airy had a Christmas open house several years ago. Beautiful home.

    Nice tour. I have a home near there, but I've never visited.

    I found a listing of free people of color from various years in the 1800's with the last name Veney in Warsaw/ Richmond County. I wonder if this is how they received freedom.
