Civil war graveyard

Having the interest in history & in wars like I do, I decided to take a little drive to this tiny serene spot that surprisingly turned out to be hauntingly beautiful.
This grave was of a Civil war soldier &
the following stones were where his family members were lain.
She was 24, basically my age.
Childbirth would be my guess at cause of death,
but that's nothing factual.

2 years old :( Probably the result of lack of
medication and medical knowledge. So sad.Look carefully. There appears to be a boy standing amidst the
graveyard yet he wasn't there when the shot was taken.
Only kidding of course.
The remains of where they had once lived.
How crazy!


Well that is all I have for now. Sorry Blogspot, I sort of suck at keeping up with you. Until then!
