Protocol for conducting a Find A Grave Survey:
- There must be evidence of Confederate service in a picture on the memorial page (VA tombstone, inscription on a non-military tombstone, Confederate flag, Southern Cross of Honor).
- Confederate soldiers are automatically recorded if they are marked with a VA tombstone.
- Service of those marked with a Confederate flag or Southern Cross of Honor is are recorded if their service records can be established.
- Soldiers whose service is described in their Find a Grave memorial are recorded if the information given can be corroborated.
This is a survey of Dogwood Valley Cemetery in Catoosa County using the Find A Grave memorial page for the cemetery. The cemetery page contains 862 memorials and 90 % have been photographed. I think I visited this cemetery many years ago and left without finding any Confederate solider markers.
