Confederate Cemetery

Slowly starting to pick my way through my massive photographic archive, I came across these photographs of the Fredericksburg Confederate Cemetery that I took in the 1990s. According to the National Park Service, the cemetery is situated at the corner of William Street and Washington Avenue.

Six Confederate generals and more than 3,300 Southern soldiers lie buried there, 2,184 of them are unknown. For more information, click HERE. Click once on an image, and then again for a close-up view.
