After searching Ferry Farm, the 113 acre property located 50 miles south of the District of Columbia, for years, an archeology team for the George Washington Foundation unearthed the childhood home of the nation's first president. Washington is known to have lived there from the ages of 6 to 20.

Among the 500,000 artifacts already found are wig curlers and a wooden pipe bearing a Masonic seal that dates to the time George Washington joined the Fredericksburg Masonic Lodge in 1753.
