Information compiled from Record Group 109, compiled Confederate military service records, in the National Archives, Washington, D.C., and cemetery records.
Immediately after the Civil War, white women across the South organized to retrieve the remains of Confederate soldiers. In Virginia alone, these Ladies' Memorial Associations (LMAs) relocated and reinterred the remains of more than 72,000 soldiers. Challenging the notion that southern white women were peripheral to the Lost Cause movement until the 1890s, Caroline Janney restores these women as the earliest creators and purveyors of Confederate tradition. Long before national groups such as the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and the United Daughters of the Confederacy were established, Janney shows, local LMAs were earning sympathy for defeated Confederates. Her exploration introduces new ways in which gender played a vital role in shaping the politics, culture, and society of the late nineteenth-century South.
Vol. 2 lists the names of over 10,500 Confederate soldiers that died during the Civil War. Some veterans are included. Also over one hundred Union soldiers that were buried along with the Confederates. The deaths of these Union soldiers were not included in the United States Quartermaster's 27-volume Roll of Honor series. The majority of these Federal soldier's remains were never moved to a national cemetery. Also included are the names of servants, Slaves, and even one African-American Confederate buried in these cemeteries.
