Archaeology has been a major activity of the Society for many years.  Our longest running site is Washington's Headquarters in Warwick Township (since 1997).  We work at the sites through the spring, summer and autumn.  The sites are selected for their history, and the interest of the site owner.  We accept requests when we can with our focus being on serving the history of the site.  We will continue this activity as long as there is interest. In the past we have also participated in maritime archaeology.  To view our page on Maritime Archaeology, click HERE.

The archaeology excavation schedule is now posted for the 2008 season.

Pins were commonplace in a colonial home. They were used for sewing and to hold cloths together in the place of buttons. Pins are very small, so it is almost impossible to see them in the ground and screens. For the lucky digger who actually finds a pin, they become instant members of The Pin Head Club.

"The Club was created to give the members bragging rights."  See the Club Members listed below:
