CSA Burials in unmarked Graves
Williamson County, Tennessee
Submitted by Dennis Lampley
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.
