This 100 acres was part of a 1200 acre patent granted to Colonel Nicholas Spencer on 22 September 1668, who assigned it to John Washington (great-grandfather of George Washington) on 9 October 1668. James Hambleton’s southwestern corner was on the patent line, 2310 feet east of the southwestern corner of the original 1200-acre patent.
