Thank you for all of the local sites and backstories. As a Spotsylvania resident, my wife and i have learned a lot of local history from your videos. Keep up the awesome work.
Sure did enjoy this video. Had no idea the place where the General passed still existed. Glad to see the painting of the area at the time of death. Excellent video - thank you!
My Aunt Elizabeth (Chandler) Hayden was somehow the only family member left and inherited the property and also the Sterling Plantation about a mile 1/2 due West. I'm not sure of the family line tbh, I just know she inherited. She married my Uncle and they lived at the Sterling Plantation until my Uncle passed. I visited as a child and of course it was no longer a big money making plantation but they did use it as a farm. My Uncle worked at Dahlgren, Va. They kept chickens of all varieties, turkeys, and rabbits. It was fun to visit.
Too bad they took the bed and clock out. That was the most chilling part when the Park Ranger said to everyone to be quiet and all we heard was the clock: tick tick tick......to which the Ranger after several moments of ticking silence said, "this was the last sound that General Jackson heard before he died."
