Patawomeck Indian Museum (Duff Green House)

The Patawomeck tribe of Virginia Indians was based in Stafford County, Virginia, along the Potomac River (Patawomeck is another spelling of Potomac). The Patawomeck tribe was granted state heritage recognition in February 2010.

In the 17th century, at the time of early English colonization, the tribe was a component of the Powhatan Confederacy. At times it was allied with others in the confederacy, and at others, the Patawomeck allied with the English.
