CSA Burials in Unmarked Graves<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Here are some Black Confederate Soldiers in Williamson County buried in unmarked graves. There are several more in the county, but these are the ones on which I have identified burial sites and have documentation verifying Confederate service. They are eligible for VA stones at no cost. Getting VA stones for these men would be a great project. Getting permission to place them in the Cemeteries is all that is lacking. I have briefly discussed this with Rick Warwick, Historian with the Heritage Foundation of Franklin & Williamson County. He has a lot of contacts in the communities of the county and could be of great help. I’ll copy this email to SCV & UDC members and others who may be interested.<\/div>\n<\/header>\n
