Description  

Over the next three summers the joint Colonial Williamsburg/College of William and Mary field school will carefully examine the northern portion of Peyton Randolph’s property in Williamsburg’s Historic Area in order to determine how Peyton Randolph used this part of his inheritance from his father Sir John Randolph. One of the uses of this part of his land could have been the processing of grain with a windmill that is documented as being on the property in a deed of sale dated 1724. Another likely use of this area was as a garden
