The drawing of the fort dates also from 1884 and was made by a man who does not appear in records in Abingdon until the census of 1884. He stated in a letter that only one other person knew the story until he told it. The name of Abingdon does not come from Martha Washington's ancestral home. Her family (Dandridge)had no connection with Abingdon Parish in Virginia or Abingdon, England. I am writing a new history of the county.<br />James W.
