A clay pipe with a Masonic crest found in one of the cellars may have belonged to George. Other artifacts recovered at the site included wine bottles, knives and forks, pieces of small figurines and bone toothbrush handles.

“clay pipe with a Masonic crest found in one of the cellars may have belonged to George”

A nearby graveyard also contained Skull and bones!

In all seriousness. If they escavated my boyhood home, they might find a lot of cigarette butts, but they would have belonged to my parents not to me.

The washington home being excavated was a tobacco farm. I imagine a few smokers stopped by.

George also had 3 brothers.

It “may have belonged to George”, but the odds are against it.
