Awww...Peanuts

[L Verge]

Bless you, Susan! I believe you have pretty much dispelled the theory of Peanuts being the son of Dr. Borrows. That claim has bothered me for a decade or more.

BTW, folks - Susan mentioned Nora Fitzpatrick Whelan in her above posting. That would be the young lady who boarded at the Surratt home on H Street, and Susan has done extensive research on Nora for a long article that I hope to run in a fall issue of the Surratt Courier.

I wonder if the Borrows house at St. E's still exists? A good portion of that historic property has been turned over to Homeland Security, so who knows how much of its history will be spared.
