He raised hogs and learned about growing crops, including tobacco, corn, and wheat. He also enjoyed hunting and fishing. George and Martha Washington’s home, which was called Mount Vernon. Married to Martha In 1758, George met and fell in love with a young, beautiful, and wealthy widow named Martha Dandridge Custis. Martha had two children from her previous marriage. Her son John was six years old and her daughter Martha was four years old. George adored both of the children and was heartbroken when young Martha died just before the American Revolution began. Martha had an 18,000-acre (7,000-hectare) estate, from which George personally acquired 6,000 acres (2 hectares) of land. The marriage greatly increased George’s land holdings, making him one of the wealthiest landowners in Virginia. On January 6, 1759, George and Martha married. They were married for nearly 40 years, but had no children together. The greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not our upon circumstances. —Martha Dandridge Custis Washington 12 W ashington built a career in the military fighting in conflicts during the French and Indian War. In 1758, he was elected to Virginia’s House of Burgesses. Land Wars In the 1750s, life in the colonies was not always peaceful. The British, French, and Native Americans were constantly fighting over land in North America. In the early 1750s, France and Britain were at peace, but this did not last long. The French military began taking over much of the Ohio Valley. In October 1753, Virginia’s lieutenant governor, Robert Dinwiddie, found out that the French military was building forts there. He decided to send them a letter of warning and chose George Washington to deliver it. Words of Warning Early Military Pursuits On Dinwiddie’s order, Washington traveled to Fort LeBoeuf—in present-day Waterford, Pennsylvania—to command the French to abandon all of their forts that were sitting on British territory between Lake Ontario and the Ohio River. The French refused. Washington quickly returned to the colonial capital of Williamsburg only to find out that Dinwiddie was sending him back—this time with troops. Washington and his troops set up a post at Great Meadows called Fort Necessity, and prepared for an attack on the French. 1753 October George becomes a major in the Virginia militia 1754 French and Indian War begins 1755 February George is sent to serve as an assistant and advisor to General Edward Braddock July 13 General Braddock is mortally wounded during an ambush August George is appointed commander of all Virginia militia forces 1758 George resigns as commander of the Virginia forces 15 6from Ear-Splitting Sounds and Other Vile Noises (Disgusting & Dreadful Science series) 14 10 Tel: 1-800-387-7650 • Fax: 1-800-355-7166
