Early records tell of a land sale in 1636 being these 500 acres with “all howses...gardens, orchards, tenements.” The property passed from Thomas Crompe “of the Neck of Land” to Gershon Buck son of the Reverend Richard Buck who ministered for more than a decade at Jamestown.

Marker can be reached from Colonial National Historic Parkway 2.3 miles east of Jamestown Road (Virginia Route 31).
