Not just at Oakwood Confederate Section, but Oakwood Old Section, Riverview Cemetery, Shockoe Hill Cemetery, or Hollywood Cemetery; only naming these few Cemeteries most know around the Richmond area. There are still multiple other cemeteries with unmarked Confederate Soldier's graves around the South, and yes even in the North.
Good news is that the Veterans Administration has eased the requirement for placing Soldier's grave markers on our Fallen Heroes. Works have begun here in the Richmond area in Hollywood, Shockoe Hill and Riverview Cemeteries(Oakwood Cemetery is still waiting for The Virginia to stop putting plaques to themselves and get with the program to mark our Heroes) to take advantage of these new rules.
Please come join us to place these unmarked Ancestors of Ours with the proper grave markers.
