About Lt. Col. Lewis Tilghman Moore

Lieutenant Colonel Lewis Tilghman Moore was commander of the 31st Virginia Militia. Later, while commanding the 4th Virginia Infantry, Colonel Moore offered his home at 415 North Braddock Street, Winchester, Virginia, USA, to serve as the headquarters for Confederate Major General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson.

One of Colonel Moore's descendants is actress Mary Tyler Moore, who has helped pay for restorations of the home for a museum - including replica wallpaper matching the original to which Jackson referred.

The home was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1967.
