The Mountaineer War MemorialA fourth Civil War monument is, however, hidden from view—tucked in a grove of trees along California Avenue.
However, others were troubled that a person who fought to destroy the Union and the creation of West Virginia was honored on the Capitol grounds before anyone who fought for the Union and West Virginia had been recognized there.
