Thank you for posting this. This past weekend, I went to Washington, D.C., and on the way back went to Richmond to visit Oakwood Cemetery, where 17,000 Confederate soldiers are buried. I had visited the site of Libby Prison[mentioned in the article] in Richmond on a previous trip and also several other sites---Chimborazo Hospital site and Hollywood cemetery, among many others. Any one with ancestors who were in the Confederacy or who has an interest in the Civil War would find a trip to Richmond very fascinating and moving. {I had several ancestors who were hospitalized in Richmond during the War and one buried at Oakwood in Richmond.} Again, I appreciate your posting this link--the article was very interesting.
