Back to 1620.

I visited my sister in Washington DC and she took my wife and me to Plymouth Bay and Newport News, I must have taken a lot of photos, this is the only one I can find, I think this was the blacksmith's shop, I wonder what crime you had to commit to get a spell in the stocks? History is fascinating, is'nt it?

Nice find from your stash. Too bad this was the only one you found from your visit. My understanding is that it didn't take much of a crime to find yourself installed in the stocks which were meant to deter misbehavior.

That's a great find Jon! I agree it's too bad you couldn't find more of them but I am glad you found this one. What year do you think this was?

 

[Jon Bev]

June 1979 Jim, I wish I knew then what I know now.
