Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. The Randolph family was well represented in Virginia politics in the colonial and early republic eras. Peyton Randolph was the colony's attorney general, served as speaker of the House of Burgesses in Virginia and president of the first Continental Congress. This was his family home, in which he was born, and lived in life-long. The first section was built in 1715, with several additions that followed; this is an original building, with restoration.
