Charles has a Confederate Veterans marker. A story goes something like this, "The Veterans of the Confederacy
were given several choices of Grave markers to choose from, designed specifically for those who were veterans of the
Confederacy during the Civil War. The Confederate Veterans chose the one with the "Point" on top - "to keep the
damned Yankees from settin' on 'em!". Photo donated by Joseph and Betty Hahn.
