* * a With the onset of spring and U.S. ■ ■ Grant’s D-day for the greatest concerted drive on all fronts against Richmond, history was being made again in February 1865 at White House Landing, on the Pamunkey, at a faster pace than ever before. This was the head of navigation on the western upper arm of the York River (the other being the Matteponi). This was about where Powhatan had his capital from which he ruled the tribes of eastern Maryland and Virginia when the English settled Jamestown. The name White House Landing came in the next century' from its having a wharf for the family seat of the Custises in New Kent County. The widow Martha Dandridge Custis lived in that White House when the young Virginia Col. George Washington won her hand and fortune. The plantation had passed by inheritance to Martha’s greatgrandson and Robert E. Lee’s son, W. H. Fitzhugh Lee, when war came in 1861. Mrs. Robert E. Lee and daughter Mary were at White House when Union forces
