Burton Parish Church, an Episcopal church, is in the middle of Colonial Williamsburg. They have plaques noting where famous VAs from the Revolutionary era sat. I will take observe if those are gone too. Although the only thing keeping that church open are the tourist dollars.

Actually it is Bruton Parish Church:

It is an amazing place. I had to go and sit where all the markers are.

To think that so many Founders were arrayed there on Sunday mornings in the early 1770s in the same place is hard to take in.

They had no idea of what lay ahead, and their part in it.
