Wilmer McLean had the Civil War start in his front yard and end in his parlor--NO JOKE!! The First Battle of Manassas (Bull Run) took place on Wilmer McLean's farm on July 21, 1861. McLean moved his family from northern to central Virginia out of concern for their safety, settling eventually in a home near the Appomattox Court House. The Civil War ended in McLean's parlor in 1865 between Grant and Lee. It seems though this guy could not catch a break from the war. His home in 1861 became the headquarters for Confederate Brigadier General P.G.T. Beauregard. A cannonball dropped through the kitchen fireplace guring the engagement and Beauregard wrote after the battle that, "A comical effect of this artillery fight was the destruction of the dinner of myself and staff by a Federal shell that fell into the fire-place of my headquarters at the McLean House."
