Washington's hair found in old book.

A shabby, leather-bound almanac from 1793 sat long forgotten on a shelf at Union College’s library in upstate Schenectady — until an *archivist surveying some of the school’s collections plucked it from obscurity in December. But there was something else hidden away inside an envelope tucked between the book’s pages: a lock of hair belonging to George Washington. He was a redhead growing up and powdered his hair white, a fashionable color in the 18th century.

Interesting. Didn't know GW was a redhead. :) Boys of VA anyone? Probably not since we can't get DNA from a strand of hair without the follicle.
