Sobre IBD

For years no one has known the exact location of Fort Trial or Fort Mayo in Virginia, from the Revolutionary War period. Many have speculated, but the author takes you through the research process with the deeds, wills, and probates that deal with the land swaps and assignments to find the actual locations and the homes of the men who owned the property. He also talks about how George Washington visited the forts and helped develop the line of forts along the frontier. Along the way he finds a mystery surrounding John Marr, one of the wealthiest men in the country who died penniless. What happened to his fortune? Is there a buried treasure out there? Front cover image: Marby’s Mill in Patrick Co., VA where Fort Mayo is located.
