Hi SandyQueue, Thanks for your coment. I am glad you enjoyed the video. There is a lot of history in Georgetown hiding in plain sight.

Really well done! I've lived in the DC area most of my life and wasn't aware of a lot of the things in this video.

Hi MattsCats, Thanks for your comment. I learned a lot making this video. Georgetown has a more interesting history than I expected at the start of the video project.

@@kuroshiocurrent I actually filled out a volunteer application at Mt. Zion cemetery last night because of your video. Thanks!

This is crazy nothing about the history of Georgetown university? Crazy.

Thanks for your comment. You are correct that the video does not mention any of the historic universities within the boundary of Georgetown. Clearly, there are several. I regret this shortcoming.
