Lee had no option but to "go and see General Grant", as he put it. In May of 1865 the ladies of Appomattox met to from an association to preserve the graves of Confederate who were killed in the vicinity. On Dec. 1, 1866, eighteen Confederates (ten unknown) and one unknown Union Soldier were reinterred in what is now known as the United Daughters of the Confederacy Cemetery.

These Civil War Soldiers are buried within the boundaries of the Appomattox Court House National Histoical Park.
