Boundary Stones

All you ever wanted to know about Washington, D.C. history! Boundary Stones tells the stories you’ve heard and the ones you haven’t about the Federal City. You can find my articles at the link above. Read about Ona Judge and Hercules Posey, people enslaved by George Washington; Mary Surratt, the only woman hanged for Abraham Lincoln’s assassination; and Thomas Smallwood, the shoemaker who helped hundreds of enslaved people escape to the north.
