yorktown national cemetery印象
-
This was part of the Yorktown Battleground Driving tour. This is the first main stop on the drive. This was fascinating to view the different plots with the dates of death. Its a quaint solemn stop on an interesting drive.

I actually did not know about this stop until we were doing the battlefield tour. I'm so glad we stopped. It is a small cemetery but humbling nevertheless. When you walk the grounds you notice 2-3 unknown soldiers in the same grave. Most of the soldiers buried here from the Civil War are unknown. You will notice a sign on the gate letting you know that it is a cemetery and to be quiet. If you bring children you might might explain it to them a little before you bring them in. It's not a ride at Busch Gardens but a place to honor our dead soldiers. Also inside the caretakers house you can get info on the Civil War battle that was fought on the same battlefield.

It comes alive to you when you actually go where these men fought. The grounds are very well taken care of. The museum diplays were super.

Small cemetery beautifully maintained. Very sacred area and sadly so many unknown soldier graves. These are mostly Civil War graves.
-
Although it seems to be small in comparison. The cemetery is a remarkable place to reflect on what really happened on these grounds.It is sad to see that man of the headstones are being covered up by shrubs and bushes. These need to be taken down before the stones are lost forever
-
This is a small cemetery but there are hundreds of soldiers buried there of whom 2/3 are unknown, except to God. Very sacred place.
-
This is a small cemetery inside of the Yorktown National Battlefield. This cemetery is for Civil War soldiers killed during a union campaign.

Walked through the cemetery, sad but cool at the same time! Definitely a must see and it was neat to know they actually had small little town for slaves there as well. Lots of history to learn!
-
It was awe-inspiring to view this cemetery and walk among the gravestones of the soldiers who fought for our independence. I would definitely recommend taking time for this.

Not necessarily exciting but certainly port of the whole experience visiting Yorktown. It's grounds are well manicured and there's plenty of signs guiding you to the interesting areas and informing you of what happened there - along with some details of the major players.
