Lt. William Wallace 1756-1800 5th grandfather. I visited site today. I believe it could be a nice revolutionary park. The sights on the pathetic where classy but hard to read. I do invision it to be more. The Tuckahoe wildlife management area was perty awesome. I enjoyed riding down to miller's lake and taking in the swamps and wet lands. There was quite a few folks at boat ramp. I did not explore area fully but that part was nice. Thx

Also, can you give me the name of the painting and the artist? (the one depicting the battle.) Thank you.

Can you tell me who and how to contact the person about placing the commemorative bricks at this site? It is my understanding that my 3rd Great Grandfather, George Lawson Stapleton Sr., was captured by the British at this battle, and served the remainder of the war as a POW on a British ship at St. Augustine.

Hi Fay. That is a fascinating story about your 3rd great grandfather. If you want more information about getting a commemorative brick as well as the painting, please e-mail Stephen Hammond at shammond@nctv.com
