Check out these clues for this week’s landmark...
This historic, abandoned mill complex was the largest and longest-operating milling site along the Brandywine.
How easily can you guess what it is? The first three people to guess correctly will win a copy of “Captain Thomas Macdonough: Delaware Born Hero of the Battle of Lake Champlain” by Virginia Mason Burdick. The son of a Delaware Revolutionary War veteran, Thomas Macdonough would serve with distinction in the War of 1812. After the climactic Battle of Lake Champlain, Macdonough would go down in history as one of Delaware greatest military heroes. In her biography, Virginia M. Burdick discusses the life and times of Captain Macdonough and tells the story of a lesser-known hero of America’s second war for independence.
