To obtain headstones for civil war vetrans--------------- You need to go thru the VA. First off, look at this site: http://www.cem.va.gov/hmtype.htm It shows you the types of headstones, and links to another page for Civil war headstones after giving directions for it what to do about Civil war stones Then you can download the application form (VA form 1330) from http://www.va.gov/forms/data/1330x.pdf This actually brings up a pdf of the form and instructions. If all else fails go to http://www.va.gov and do a search for grave markers or headstones and get contact information I recieved this also from another list and thought I would share with all of you --if you need more informatin , please feel free to contact me and I can refer you on. :-) To my understanding this is too obtain a headstone , when the veterans is already proven to be a veteran.
