    Ever since I found that my relatives owned a house at the corner of 510 B Street and 10th SW, I have been fascinated with trying to find a picture of their house which would have been across from the Smithsonian. The 1900 census is the last the relatives are listed living there and I am wondering how to find out what came next for the house and that area which is now Independence Ave.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Buoyant - Buoy Images!, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    The Mary Washington sank the afternoon of October 5, 1896, springing a leak at its dock at the foot of 11th Street and going under on the Virginia side of the river. See "Sank at Anchor in River" in that day's "Evening Star".
