Dr. Michael Roller featured in Washington Post article discussing his work at Arlington National Cemetery

Woods Hall

Dr. Michael Roller is featured in a Washington Post article discussing his work at Arlington National Cemetery. The article entitled "How did pieces of Martha Washington’s dishware from China get to a trash pit at Arlington House?" discusses how Dr. Roller's work with the National Park Service (NPS) at Arlington house has revealed a very interesting find. The dig last summer at the historic house in Arlington National Cemetery unearthed rare fragments of the "states china". This dishware was commissioned in China for Martha Washington while she was First Lady of the United States.
