Dungeness once stood seven miles south. Built about 1730 by Isham Randolph (1685-1742), it was the home of the sea captain, merchant, and planter who was the grandfather of Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States, and of James Pleasants, Governor of Virginia. Randolph also served as Virginia's agent in London and Adjutant General of the Colony.
