I was looking at your blog and noticed your title about Jamestown. Back in 1957, just a week or two after the queen had visited, my family visited the new Jamestown as part of our vacation. After reading in the “Weekly Reader” for weeks about the big event with the ships and the newly rebuilt fort, we were really excited about visiting it. Grandma would have been 42 and dad 40. It was a fun time. It is neat that the queen made it back again 50 years later. Back then they were really sure they had built on the exact spot of the original fort but now we know they missed the mark. The one corner of the fort is actually covered by the river now. – Dad
