Colonial Williamsburg History: A year after mosquito-plagued Jamestown burned down, the colonial capital was moved inland to a small village known as the Middle Plantation, soon re-christened WILLIAMSBURG in honor of King William III. To reflect the increasing wealth of the colony, a grand city, centering upon a mile-long, hundred-foot-wide avenue, was laid out. Suitable buildings were constructed, beginning with the capitol in 1704 and culminating in the opulent Governor's Palace in 1720. By the mid-1700s tobacco-rich Virginia was the most prosperous of the American colonies, and Williamsburg was its largest city, though with some two thousand residents not on the scale of Philadelphia, New York or Boston. Williamsburg remained the seat of colonial government, and emerged as one of the leading centers of revolutionary thought : at the College of William and Mary , George Wythe, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and George Mason argued the finer points of law and democracy, while in the capitol, and in the many raucous taverns that surrounded it, firebrand politicians like Patrick Henry held forth on the iniquities of colonialism and organized the first resistance to British rule. When the Revolutionary War broke out, the government moved to the more secure Richmond, and Colonial Williamsburg slowly faded from view, all but unrecognized for its place in American history.

College of William and Mary: Founded in 1693, William and Mary is the second oldest educational institution in the U.S. Although Harvard began operation first, William and Mary's antecedents actually predate those of the Massachusetts institution. William and Mary ranks first among American public universities in terms of commitment to undergraduate teaching, according to U.S. News and World Report. It is also the highest ranked small public university in the country. Four Presidents of the United States benefited from educational programs offered by the College: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and John Tyler. Named for its presumed architect, the Sir Christopher Wren Building was completed in 1697 and provided classrooms, library, dining hall and a chapel for generations of William and Mary students. It is the oldest academic building in continuous use in the U.S., and classes are still taught within its walls. A succession of influential individuals--including President George Washington, President John Tyler, Chief Justice Warren Burger, former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and currently, former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger have held the post of Chancellor of the College of William and Mary. Super 8 Williamsburg motel is just blocks away from the College of William and Mary.
