Branchland


Branchland, originally uploaded by da_mere.

This is my family's plantation, Branchland, in Charlottesville, VA. Ok, so it's my family by marriage, but I still inherited a lot from them. See if you can follow this: my paternal grandmother's sister married Channing Moore Bolton, that's where my middle name comes from. Channing Moore Bolton's father, also Channing Moore Bolton, bought this plantation in the late 1800s and this is where Uncle Chan was born and bred.

Today is an assisted living facility.
