Fay: There was a Confederate Home here in Fayetteville. It was located on Ft. Bragg Rd. It is gone now. There are two cemeteries behind where the home once stood. One is for the Gee Family (my ancestors) and another is for the ladies who lived in the home. I do not know where any of their records are now. I would suggest contacting the NC State Archives and seeing if they know anything about them. Terry Sanford High School now has a parking lot and ball field where the home used to be. Diane Fanning Fayetteville, NC Can anyone give me any information about a OLD CONFEDERATE HOME that was located in Fayetteville?

Can anyone give me any information about a OLD CONFEDERATE HOME that was located in Fayetteville? As I understand it, the home was for widowed wives of Confederate Soldiers. Not sure about that. I'd like to find out more information about the Home. Where it was located, if there are any records of who lived there, etc. Thanks, Fay

Saw this query and thought if anyone does have the book, maybe they could also do a look up for me. My great-great-grandfather's brother is believed to have died in about 1863 while serving in the Confederate Army. Would appreciate your time. Thanks.
