Front row L to R - Susanna (now Sandi Atkinson) and sister Carolyn Wesner. Back row, R to L - our grandmother Mildred Tredway Major Eldridge, her daughter (our mother) Janet Major Eldridge Wesner, Janet's cousin Hazel Adams, Hazel and Ted's daughter Cynthia Adams, and Hazel's husband Ted Adams. Photo probably taken by Charles Wesner, Janet's husband. We Wesners and Grandma Eldridge lived at 4115 Aspen Street, Chevy Chase, Md. The Adamses were visiting from New Jersey. This might have been an Easter, 1949, visit. The tourists nowadays don't get dressed up like that. Sandi Atkinson, 1949

My late mother, Mary McNamara, loved Mount Vernon. She first visited Mount Vernon in 1939-she was the American Legion's National Drum Majorette Champion and they were enroute to Boston for their convention, where she would march in their parade.
She was able to volunteer with me a number of times when visiting-raising flags, helping with Garden Days in the upper garden, etc. Her favorite was the Wine Festival--being in costume and meeting General and Mrs.Washington was the highlight! Kathleen McLoughlin, 2014

My husband took this photo of me and our two daughters on our first visit to the estate after moving to the Mt Vernon area of Alexandria. We started our membership right away, visiting the estate and grounds monthly (sometimes more frequent) and enjoying the special events throughout the year! Jessica Beatty, 2018
