The gravesite of the left arm of General Stonewall Jackson - After General Jackson's arm was amputated nearby at the Wilderness Tavern, his doctor, Hunter McGuire didn't feel that it was appropriate for the General's arm to be buried in a mass grave with other amputated limbs, so he took the arm, and brought it to his family's home nearby and had it buried in the family plot. It remains there to this day.  © Mike Lynaugh
