Read the paragraph from "Myths About the Founding Fathers."
Throwing a silver dollar across a river may have been quite a feat for a young man, but there is one fact that proves this story wrong. Silver dollars didn’t exist when Washington was a boy. The legend appears to come from a story explained by his biographer (you’ll meet him in a minute). Washington grew up north of Fredericksburg, Virginia, on Ferry Farm. This is very close to the Rappahannock River. His biographer wrote that George and his friends would throw rocks across the river while waiting for the ferry. The Rappahannock was only about 300 feet wide during Washington’s time. Throwing a rock across it would have been easy. Washington grew up north of Fredericksburg, Virginia, on Ferry Farm.
