Quick Facts

History & Context

American Heroes Clarksburg, the birthplace of General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, was the adopted home of thousands of immigrant laborers after the Civil War and, thanks to the discovery of gas and oil, a major manufacturing center for glass, tin and zinc. Two monuments mark the town's heritage. A likeness of Stonewall sits astride a bronze horse on the courthouse plaza and nearby, a heroic sculpture represents the Belgian, Czech, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Romanian and Spanish immigrants who flocked to the region beginning in the 1880s. Waldomore, a 19th century mansion filled with period antiques, was the original location of the Clarksburg/Harrison Public Library. It houses special collections including a genealogical library, works by and about West Virginians and the Gray Barker U.F.O. Collection. At nearby Fort New Salem, on the site of the original settlement and fort, early industry workshops, traditional music, food and storytelling are all part of the programs that describe the life of the Scotch-Irish and German families who settled the area.
