To Gwynn's Island
Two miles east is Toddsbury, home of the Todd family, built in 1722. Farther east, in Mathews County, are the old homes, Green Plains, Auburn, and Midlothian. Some miles beyond them is Gwynn's Island, where General Andrew Lewis drove the last royal governor, Lord Dunmore, from Virginia soil, July, 1776.
Marker is at the intersection of John Clayton Memorail Highway (Virginia Route 3) and Main Street (Virginia Route 14), on the right when traveling north on John Clayton Memorail Highway.
