Archaeologists have recently found out and excavated the vestiges of George Washington's childhood home and some of the objects of his infancy.

The boyhood house of the first President of the United States is Ferry Farm, 50 miles south of the capital city that is named after him. He moved to Ferry Farm at the age of six and took over the farm after his father passed away before moving to Mount Vernon.

The news of the discovery at the south Stafford County historical spot spread quickly since Wednesday. As predicted by the governor, the site would attract tourists. People yesterday came to Ferry Farm even from Missouri, Kentucky, Arizona, Florida and Ohio, to visit the site. They say the unearthing makes the Independence Day even more remarkable.

Samantha Henderson, a member of the field staff, said that although it is about just “a few rocks and a lot of dirt, for archeologists, it is great." The notification of the long-sought ascertainment came after seven years of digging and several disappointments.

"We have the building that was the first home of the nation's first president," stated historical archeologist Philip Levy, of the University of South Florida at a news conference when he announced the finding of Washington's boyhood house.

It was always unanimously known that George Washington grew up on the Stafford County estate close to Fredericksburg, but until now, nobody could locate the remains of the habitation on the 100-plus acres or disclose the artifacts concealed there. Marilyn Henderson was taken aback by the girth of the former president's house. In line with the archeologists, there were eight rooms with three bedrooms on a second floor.
