You are correct, it is now ROMNEY MANOR. I even have pictures of the church
and the graves of Samuel Jeaffreson and Sir Thomas Warner under a cover near
the church.

Ms. Berkes

Thank you for the information that you provided.  The guide was so positive 
about the connection, and in my years of study on Virginia history I never 
heard that story, therefore I was looking for some documentation.  But I 
guess it is a good story for the tourist that visit the island.

He further stated that Mr. Jefferson owned Romney Manor which still stands, 
to some extent.
