Among the many people buried in the Tolomato Cemetery in St. Augustine, Florida are a number of St. Augustine's Confederate dead. The cemetery is gated and locked so the photo of the graves was taken from a distance using the telephoto option on the camera

Located in the plaza at St. Augustine. It lists the names of men from the city who served in the Confederate Army, many of the names were seen on the gravestones at Tolomato Cemetery. Quite a number of the surnames on the monument appear to be Hispanic

 
     

(Wartime) This 1864 photo was taken from nearly same angle as the modern photo of the Government House from across King Street looking at St. George Street. Note the Federal soldier standing guard
 
The original photo is part of a display in the Government House

Enlarged views of the Government House, today and in 1864
 
Located on St. George Street between Cathedral Place and King Street. The City of St. Augustine was occupied by both Confederate and Union forces during the war
 
Today the Government House is used as a museum, but the original building over the years was the Spanish Royal Government House, St. Augustine City Hall, and a US Post Office
 
This photo was taken from the intersection of King Street and St. George Street on March 16, 2007
