Virginia Governor's Mansion Through the Years
The Virginia governor's mansion evolved from a fragile frame house to the Georgian mansion now housing the first family. It has undergone many alterations since 1813, survived fires including 1926's Christmas sparkler blaze, and hosted presidents and dignitaries such as Hayes, Cleveland, McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Lafayette, Edward VII, Churchill, Queen Elizabeth, and Marshal Foch. Gen Stonewall Jackson lay in state there in May 1863.
