Editing Berkeley Plantation (section)

===Restoration===
[[John Jamieson]], a lumber tycoon who as a youth had been at Berkeley as a drummer boy in McClellan's army, purchased the property in 1907. In 1925, his son Malcolm inherited the property, expending large sums of money to turn the ruined main house into a livable and stately home for himself and his bride Grace Eggleston. The project took over a decade and the mansion was finally occupied by the Jamisons in 1938.

The ground floor of the mansion was turned into a museum in the 1960s.  Today the house attracts visitors from the United States and other parts of the world.

The architecture is original, and the house has been filled with antique furniture and furnishings that date from the period when it was built. The grounds, too, have been restored, and cuttings from the boxwood gardens are available as living souvenirs for its visitors.
Berkeley is still a working farm; corn, [[Soybean|soybeans]], wheat, tomatoes, and other vegetables are grown here.

There is also a small family cemetery on the property.  Among those buried here are Benjamin Harrison V, Grace Jamieson, and Malcolm Jamieson.<ref name=roberts/>

Reconstructed slave quarters were built on the property in 2018 by the producers of [[Harriet (film)|''Harriet'']], a movie about [[Harriet Tubman]] that was filmed in part at the plantation.   The original quarters were no longer extant at that point. Plantation owner Benjamin Harrison V held 110 people in slavery at the time of his death in 1791.<ref>{{cite web |title=Berkeley's Enslaved |url=http://www.berkeleyplantation.com/berkeley-s-enslaved.html |website=Berkeley Plantation |access-date=8 July 2021}}</ref>
