Sailor’s Creek

Black And White Photography, Laurie, Mobile Photography, Photography

The Battle at Sailor’s Creek occurred just 3 days before the end of the Civil War, and in that battle, nearly a quarter of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee’s army, more than 7,700 men, were killed, wounded or captured.

This photo was taken at Sailor’s Creek Battlefield State Park in Rice, Virginia. The Park Ranger told me that thousands of soldiers were buried under that grass…. no names recorded and no headstones placed.

Truly hallowed ground.
