Believed to have been removed from our First President close to or after his death in 1799, this well documented specimen is is accompanied by a handwritten letter stating "General Washington‚s hair - cut from his head in the year 1799 by Mr. John Pierie of Philadelphia, from whom I received it, Fr.
