I must agree with Jurretta on some accounts also. Because I believe that GW
himself felt he was below others of his day. He was a younger son of a
second wife. To class of people he lived among that in and of itself made
him less important and of a lower class than even his eldest half brother.
So there was a certain "pecking order" even among the Viginia planter class.
