MASON NECK, Virginia — The marble tombstone of Ann Mason in the Mason family graveyard at Gunston Hall bears a poignant inscription commemorating the wife of Founding Father George Mason IV. Ann Mason, daughter of William Eilbeck of Charles County, Maryland, died on March 9, 1773, at age 39 after what the inscription describes as 'a long and painful illness which she bore with uncommon fortitude and resignation.' The epitaph concludes with a memento mori verse reminding viewers of mortality's inevitability: 'Once she was all that cheers and sweetens life, the tender mother, daughter, friend an-stock-foto

LORTON, Virginia — A white wooden fence and gate surround the historic garden at Gunston Hall, the 18th-century plantation home of George Mason IV, author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights. The imposing barriers served both practical and aesthetic purposes, keeping out unwanted visitors and animals while adding crisp visual boundaries to the formal garden layout. The decorative gate with its iron hinges and elegant design elements transformed a functional barrier into a fashionable landscape feature, contrasting with the simpler split-rail fences that dominated colonial Virginia's agricult-stock-foto

LORTON, Virginia — The schoolmaster's quarters occupies a small room above the classroom in the schoolhouse building at Gunston Hall, the historic plantation home of George Mason IV. The modest space, where the colonial-era teacher would have lived while educating the Mason children and possibly those from neighboring plantations, features period-appropriate furnishings that demonstrate the spartan living conditions of 18th-century educators. Gunston Hall, built between 1755-1759, served as the intellectual birthplace of the Virginia Declaration of Rights that later influenced the U.S. Bill of-stock-foto

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Virginia — The summer kitchen at Gunston Hall, a separate outbuilding constructed near the main mansion, served as the primary food preparation space for George Mason's colonial plantation. Built between 1755-1759 as part of the original plantation complex, the detached kitchen prevented cooking fires from threatening the main house while keeping food preparation heat away during Virginia's sweltering summers. The structure represents typical Georgian colonial architecture with practical adaptations for its utilitarian purpose, featuring a large cooking hearth, work areas, and-stock-foto
