a few miles from where I live back in the hills a ways, there are 3 of our Confederate soldiers's graves. as i hear it,a little skirmish took place there. the headstones were chisled out of rocks from the river banks about a mile away. just a testimate to how dedicated our soldiers were to defending dixie.

Thanks for that story, KT1863. If you take a picture of the graves I'll put them on SLMN.

hi ty for posting this vid it reminds us all of the price our confederate heroes paid fighting for our freedom keep up the good work your fellow southron Gary

[RedShirtArmy]

A terrible price, indeed. The Feds killed hundreds of thousands of our people to place the entire South under DC's control.

I want to thank our Brave Boys for their Service!

If they know my heart, then they know that our Cause has not ended, and our Struggle for Liberty and Self Determination continues!

For the sake of our Children we must be Free of the Federal Beast!

Secession now, Freedom forever!

[RedShirtArmy]

You're right... the Cause certainly has not ended.

[WestTexasRebel]

DEO VINDICE!

Very good vid. I would advise people to carry a few small Confederate flags in their car when they take a drive in the country. When they find a graveyard they can stop to see if there are any Confederates buried there. If they find some they can place the flag there.Our veteran ancestors didn't want to be forgotten.I will start doing this when I can find a good source for flags.

Thats horrible. An unknown confederate soldier. I wonder if his family was lost or if he did not have any to know he was gone.

There's a Confederate grave by London. the guy is from Alabama, his name is Sheldon Ragland. story has it, he moved up before the war, but, before things got going, he went back to his home state and served. after the war, he came back to Ohio, found his house gone, he's got a nice spot by a creek that runs though.

I went to Maple Grove Cemetery on the 24th of December to place some ornaments upon the graves of my loved ones. With Southron Pride in my heart I place the last ornament upon a tree at the grave of our fallen Confederate soldiers. It is a celtic styled cross with our country's motto written upon the back. I told them that our cause hasn't died, and that we are close to having our nation free from the lying thieving yankees. Merry Christmas and long live the rebellion! Deo Vindice

Very interesting, thank you.

I wonder if there are any memorials to the civilian dead who were targeted by Northern troops?

Imagine a memorial stating that.

When I was back home in Mississippi, I would spot Confederate graves all over. Since I used to sell Confederate flags back then, I would order me a bunch of them stick flags, go back there and honor each grave with a flag.

BTW, I heard you call out TWO Pvt Wooleys 2nd South Carolina Res., brothers maybe? Sad really, but shows the devotion and will to be free!

Every April on Confederate Memorial Day the members of the Alabama UDC place Confederate flags on all Confederate soldiers' graves. I don't know how they do it in other states.

The iron cross is available for purchase through several SCV chapters as well as several private foundries throughout the United States. The grave of any Confederate Veteran who served honorably is eligible for placement of this symbol.
