ELLWOOD MANOR
Go there and contact
The importance of the Ellwood manor, much less faste than that of Chatham, lies in the fact that it is here, on the lands of the plantation, that the big battle of the Battle of Wilderness took place. In one year, the house was occupied successively by the confederate and then by the northerners. Following the battle of Chancellorsville, the southerners were a hospital for their wounded. It is here that the left arm of Stonewall Jackson was buried. This amputation, coupled with complications of pneumonia, will be fatal to the southern Mediterranean who will die some time later in a nearby plantation.
The northerners took possession of the places during the Battle of Wilderness and General Ulysses S. Grant established its headquarters just a few hundred metres north.
