61. Monuments And Men states have placed large memorials along the Seminary Ridge battle line. Historian Harold B. Simpson, of the Texas State civil war Centennial http://www.gdg.org/Research/Authored Items/monmen.html

from GETTYSBURG: STORIES OF MEN AND MONUMENTS AS TOLD BY BATTLEFIELD GUIDES By Frederick Hawthorne This reprint by the Gettysburg Discussion Group is done with the permission of the author. The book is available for purchase at the Gettysburg National Battlefield Bookstore. THE CONFEDERATE BATTLELINE NORTH CAROLINA STATE MEMORIAL To compensate for the lack of southern regimental markers on the field, over the last seventy years the various southern states have placed large memorials along the Seminary Ridge battle line. One of the earliest of these was the North Carolina Memorial built to honor twenty-three regiments, three cavalry regiments, three artillery batteries and one infantry battalion that participated in the battle. The statue was sculpted by Gutzon Borglum whose works include the carving on Mt. Rushmore. Among the most artistic monuments on the field, it was designed to commemorate the valor, bravery, and courage of the men from North Carolina.1 Located approximately where Pettigrew's North Carolina brigade of Heth's division emerged into the open fields during Pickett's Charge, Borglum wanted to depict a group of infantry men who had "...just been ordered to charge across that very bloody field."2 One figure represents a wounded officer who is urging his men on, pointing out to the enemy to the front. To his rear, a veteran whispers words of encouragement to a younger comrade while behind the group, the color bearer brings up the flag.3 All of the faces of the men were modeled using photographs of actual Confederate veterans. The model for the color bearer was Orren Randolph Smith of Henderson, North Carolina, the man who had designed the Confederate National flag, The "Stars and Bars."4

QM Web Quartermaster Museum Quartermaster Foundation Sword and Key Gift Shop ... Heraldry National Cemeteries and Memorials in Global Conflict by Edward Steere Quartermaster Review, November - December 1953 As aptly stated by Quartermaster General M. I. Ludington in 1899, the return of Spanish American War dead from Cuba and Puerto Rico for private burial by their relatives, or for reinterment at public cost in a national cemetery, was probably without precedent in world history. While true in the sense implied, the General wisely avoided a sweeping statement of fact. The Athenians, it will be recalled, erected "trophies" on the sites of victorious battles and supported a state sepulcher in the suburbs of their city for purposes similar to those now served by Arlington on the Potomac and by 97 other national cemeteries extending from ,the Narrows of New York to the Golden Gate and westward over the Pacific in Honolulu. Yet primitive means of carriage in ancient times permitted burial to only a small proportion of war fatalities in the Athenian sepulcher, giving this hallowed place more the aspect of a memorial to the heroic dead than a public cemetery in which all who gave their lives in defense of the state might expect to find a final resting place. The American system of national cemeteries offers this last consolation. Whatever the comparison between the efforts ancient Athens and modern America to pay homage to their warrior dead, the historian may justly contend that a valid precedent for return of remains to their native soil had already been created by the post Civil War reinterment program of 1866-70. Although no problem of ocean transportation was then involved, exhumation from battlefield burials in territory previously held by the enemy and reinterment in the consecrated ground of a national cemetery established such a precedent. Its extension to areas outside the continental domain awaited only the circumstances of war requiring the employment of American arms beyond the seas.

Civil War Monuments in Ohio Introduction Monument Designs Monument Honorees Monument Builders ... Civil War Monuments Menu Introduction The Civil War lasted four long years and Ohio played a pivotal role with 310,654 men enrolled in 230 regiments. Nearly all were volunteers as only 8750 were drafted. There were 5092 Black soldiers from Ohio. Over 200 Ohioans reached the rank of general. To insure that future generations would remember Ohio's contributions to the Civil War, Ohioans constructed monuments, statues, plaques and buildings. Even while war still waged, Ohioans began to build monuments. In 1863, the citizens of Bristolville, Trumbull County, erected a monument to honor thirteen local men who were "Defenders of the Union from Bristol, Ohio." The square-shaped stone monument is topped with a funerary urn and decorated with crossed swords, cannon and rifles. Also in 1863, Cincinnatians contributed funds for a suitable monument. Randolph Rogers received the commission in 1864. His statue of a Union soldier on guard, "The Sentinel," was installed in Spring Grove Cemetery in 1865. Bristol, Ohio

76. Goodwin Monument, Sailors And Soldiers Monument, Portsmouth After the bloody civil war, memorials to the dead and wounded appeared by the a list of all major civil war battle, the city seal, the NH state badge, http://seacoastnh.com/monuments/goodwin.html

Name Location Goodwin Park, Islington Street, Portsmouth, NH Honors Portsmouth area Civil War veterans Dedicated July 4, 1888 Artist Monumental Bronze Company Read "Making the Goodwin Monument Sing" SUMMARY: After the bloody Civil War, memorials to the dead and wounded appeared by the hundreds across the nation. To capitalize on this trend, the Monumental Bronze Company and others worked to streamline their sales with new affordable products. Using a cheaper zinc alloy, promoted as "white bronze", they could offer prefabricated statues and monuments. The largest white bronze monument in New Hampshire, Portsmouth's Sailors and Soldiers Monument is right from the company catalog. In fact, a sketch of our exact memorial is pictured on the company's business card Statues like the " American soldier " figure are depicted in great detail in the company's 1882 catalog. Buyers could purchase just one statue, or a combination of interchangeable figures and plaques. The soldier image alone, for example, cost only $450. For an additional $150, if the buyer could supply a photograph of a slain Civil War hero or loved one, the head would be recast in his likeness and attached to the prefabricated body. Portsmouth mayor Marcellus Eldredge, owner of the local brewery , originally planned to put this single image at the top of the monument, but later he opted for a larger more costly monument featuring a figure of Lady Liberty (or "America" as it is sometimes called) at the top of a long pedestal.
