      Eliza was also first cousin to William E. Boisseau, who built Tudor Hall in Petersburg, Dinwiddie County, VA. Tudor Hall, constructed in 1812, was the home of Boisseau cousins who supported the Confederate Army, until their home was taken by Union soldiers for a field camp. The house, currently a museum which contains a number of Civil War-era furnishings and descriptions of what happened on the property during the period, is owned and operated by Pamplin Historical Park and the National Museum of the Civil War Soldier, near Petersburg, VA.
