National Cemetery, Georgia
[return to Cemetery Index]

"May these soldiers who served faithfully for the preservation of our country,
who died so, in the horrors of the Andersonville prison,
remain in our hearts and memories forever.
May they rest in peace now, on the sacred ground of America's tribute to
these young soldiers, and,
May they grace the kingdom of God, eternally."
.............John C. Dawson
