Rare Civil War photo could show Stonewall Jackson in camp

The Falling Waters Battlefield Association will explore whether a relatively unknown Civil War photograph shows Confederate Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson during a free presentation Nov. 12 in Spring Mills. The program, "Is It Stonewall?" begins at 6:30 p.m. at the North Berkeley Public Library, 1255 TJ Jackson Drive, according to a community announcement. A detailed slide presentation will examine the photograph, which may show Jackson in camp. Only two wartime photographs of Jackson are known, and both are studio portraits. The presentation will review the history of the photograph and the evidence for and against identifying the figure as Jackson. According to the announcement, confirming a third wartime photograph, particularly a full-length outdoor image, would be a remarkable discovery. The program is free and open to the public. For information or directions, call 304-263-7242. This story was produced with the assistance of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Journalists were involved in every step of the review, editing and publishing process. Learn more at cm.usatoday.com/ethical-conduct .
