ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT! Thank you very much for this really interesting video.

I had an opportunity, briefly, to interact with these two while visiting CW. It was very nice to see that they are as charming in person as they are while acting in these videos. Much appreciation to CW and those that portray the personalities we get to see and hear while stepping back into history, for a moment. ❤

How I feel now with my fiancé, the love of my life.

I believe they loved one another, but more like a brother, sister kind of love. It was never a lusty, romantic relationship. They were compatible, she was what he needed in a wife and he was what she needed in a husband. She was a great support for him during the war. One of the things that led me to this conclusion was this. GW was selling some of his furniture at the end of his presidency. He sold his writing desk to a friend named Eliza Powell. A Philadelphia socialite, one of the people that talked GW into doing a second term. In the writing desk she found a stack of unopened letters Martha had written to George. She tripled sealed the letters and along with a letter of her own she sent them back to GW. In her letter she stated how she had found the letters and tripled sealed them against prying eyes as well as assuring him she had not peaked as she assumed the missives were love letters. GW wrote back to her thanking her but he added (and I'm paraphrasing) that anyone reading the letters that Martha sent to him would be sorely disappointed in that the letters would only be of friendship, there would be no romance or carnal lust

Is Colonel Washington still at Williamsburg? I can't find him at all on the schedule.
