Gen. Albert Gallatin Jenkins House
The Gen. Albert Gallatin Jenkins House — known historically as "Green Bottom" — is located on the east bank of the Ohio River about 7 miles north of Lesage, Cabell County, West Virginia.
The plantation house was built about 1835, and is a 2 1/2 story, rectangular, brick dwelling in a late period Federal style. It sits on a sandstone foundation and the interior has a center hall, single pile plan.
The most prominent resident was Albert Gallatin Jenkins, a two-term member of the U.S. House of Representatives, who then joined the Confederate States Army in the Civil War, attaining the rank of brigadier general before dying of wounds received in battle in 1864.
The house is open as a museum operated by the West Virginia Division of Culture and History. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
