Jackson's Mill, Historic gristmill in Lewis County, West Virginia.
Jackson's Mill features a three-story wood frame building with a wooden shingle roof and weatherboard siding, containing original cog wheels and milling equipment.
Edward Jackson constructed the sawmill and grist mill in 1809 on the West Fork River, establishing a crucial facility for local grain processing.
The mill stands as the childhood residence of Confederate General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson, who lived there from 1831 to 1842 before attending West Point.
The facility now operates as a museum and educational center within West Virginia University's Extension Service, offering guided tours and historical demonstrations.
The site includes Blaker's Mill, a water-powered gristmill from 1794 that was relocated to the property during the 1980s to enhance its historical presentation.
