Join us for an educational and fun tour of Government Island Park. The tour will include historical details about the limestone industry in Stafford County by historian, Jerrilynn Eby MacGregor, demonstrations of the mining process by past Stafford County Historical Society President, Rick MacGregor, as well special stories for the children by the historian largely responsible for the park’s creation, Jane Conner.

An elevated boardwalk enables visitors to explore a nature trail through wetlands and woods.  A scenic heritage trail through the 17 acre island is dotted with interpretive signage enabling the viewer to learn the island’s history from Native American through the early nineteenth century.  The island, with its wetlands and marsh areas, provides a variety of habitats for birds and other wildlife. Government Island, “America’s Historic Stone Quarry,” is on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register.

Rain date for the event will be Saturday, September 13 (1pm – 3pm).

Lineage & Liberty: Unlocking Your Revolutionary Past

Step back in time and uncover the heroes hidden in your family tree! This engaging genealogy workshop invites participants on a journey to explore their ancestral connections to the American Revolutionary War. Whether you’re a seasoned researcher or just starting your family history adventure, you’ll learn how to navigate historical records, trace lineages, and discover if one of your ancestors played a role in securing our nation’s independence. Guided by expert tips and hands-on activities, you’ll gain the tools and inspiration to find your Revolutionary patriot—and maybe even spark a newfound appreciation for the past that lives within you.

You’ll explore key resources like military service records, pension files, colonial censuses, and lineage society databases—including those from the Daughters and Sons of the American Revolution. Along the way, you’ll learn how to interpret clues, resolve conflicting information, and preserve your discoveries for future generations. Whether you’re hoping to join a heritage organization or simply longing to connect with the personal stories behind America’s fight for independence, this workshop offers the tools, confidence, and inspiration to unearth a patriot among your ancestors.

All workshops will be at Central Rappahannock Library, lower-level Room 1 & 2
