National Park Service’s Interpretive Display on George Pointer

The Great Falls Park, Va., Visitors Center tells the story of George Pointer, compelling because of its focus on a Black man who held an important position in the 18th century in George Washington’s Patowmack Canal Company, a precursor of the C&O Canal Company. While the National Park Service has an animated display on site, you can see the online version here.
