I took photos of the beautiful gardens at the building they call The Governor’s Palace at Colonial Williamsburg in Williamsburg, Virginia. Lord Dunmore lived there as the Royal Governor of Virginia from 1771 to 1776. Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry lived there also while Governor of Virginia. It is from this residence that Lord Dunmore led his war against the Shawnee Indians.
