The Stonewall Jackson Shrine. This is the house in which General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson died from the wounds he suffered at the Battle of Chancellorsville. After being shot by his own men at Chancellorsville, he was brought here, 21 miles from the battlefield, to recuperate from his wounds and the amputation of his left arm. Unfortunately, as things started to look better for the General, he caught pneumonia, and passed away on May 10, 1863 in a room upstairs in this home. © Mike Lynaugh
The Stonewall Jackson Shrine. This is another view of the house in which General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson died from the wounds he suffered at the Battle of Chancellorsville. This sign on the lawn shows the timeline and route taken by the ambulance to bring Stonewall here to recuperate from his wounds and amputation of his left arm. Unfortunately, that was not to be, Stonewall Jackson passed away on May 10, 1863 in a room upstairs in this home. © Mike Lynaugh
This is the actual bed that Stonewall Jackson passed away on. The bed is preserved pretty much the way it was on May 10, 1863, when Stonewall Jackson got his wish and died on a Sunday. © Mike Lynaugh
This marker is placed on the lawn of the Stonewall Jackson Shrine (the house where Stonewall passed away on May 10, 1863). The house is just to the left of this view (not shown). © Mike Lynaugh
