For you Civil War history buffs...

I've been workin with the lucky contractor who is remodeling the Lockett house at Sayler's Creek.
For those of you not familiar: Sayler's creek was one of the last battles of the Civil War, retreatin from Petersburg through Amelia and on his way to Farmville Lee was caught there.
Of course, he made it to Farmville and then on to Appomatox where he surrendered.
Anyways, I wanted ya'll to see some pics...
This one of one of the chimneys riddled with bullet holes. The house was in between the Union & Confederates. Durin the battle, it was used as field hospital where the family says that the front yard was full of the dead & dyin. The house is still with the original family who has owned the house & land since the late 1700's...the house was built by them.
