(6-2006) Spotsylvania Confederate Cemetery
 
CSA SOLDIERS' MONUMENT
 
This photo was taken between downpours on June 25, 2006. The Monument is in the center of the Confederate Cemetery at Spotsylvania. A sign at the narrow opening on Route #208 (AKA Courthouse Road) indicates the Confederate Cemetery. the cemetery was established in 1866 and contains about 570 Confederate soldiers who are buried by state. I could not help but notice a number of modern graves in the cemetery, too
