Appomattox, where the Civil War effectively ended
Appomattox is where Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to Union General Ulysses S. Grant on April 9, 1865, at the Wilmer McLean home, effectively ending the Civil War in Virginia. A kitchen remodel in Appomattox should be assessed by a property's actual construction era, not assumptions drawn from the town's Civil War-ending fame.
