Historic Structures Report, Part I: Jackson Shrine

Carroll OW and Happel R. 1962. Historic Structures Report, Part I: Jackson Shrine. Historic Structure Report. U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service

The Jackson Shrine is located in present day Caroline County near Guinea, Virginia, some nine miles south of Fredericksburg. The building represents a modest structure of the early nineteenth century; a product of rural imagination. It was in this story-and-a-half gabled structure that Confederate General "Stonewall" Jackson died in 1863. This Historic Structures Report provides the information necessary to begin restoring the Jackson Shrine to its 1863 appearance. This document also includes Ralph Happel's 1961 Historical Data section.
