Tomb of Unknown Soldier, Arlington, Va.

Custis-Lee Mansion, Arlington, Virginia, was the home of George Washington Parke Custis, adopted son of Washington.  It was afterward the home of Colonel Robert E. Lee, whose wife was Mary Custis.  During the Civil War the Arlington Estate became a military cemetery.  The Mansion is preserved as it was in the days of Custis and Lee.
