• Port Royal's 17th century pirate is immortalized in the name Peumansend Creek. A French pirate, a Monsieur Peuman, was the scourge of the settlers. Eventually they chased him up the creek and killed him. Thus the name "Peuman's End", a name which appeared on deeds as early as 1670.

The property is subject to a conservation easement made to the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, as are the adjoining parcels.
