Page 2 -  Dedication of stone to Rebecca Sineath

who was originally buried in Soldiers Ground during the War Between the States. Rebecca had been a laundress for the Confederate soldiers when a typhoid epidemic broke out. When the soldiers were brought to Magnolia for burial, she was laid to rest with them. At a later date, her remains were moved just outside of the Soldiers Ground to make room for more soldiers. The location was recently determined and the Confederate Heritage Trust (of which SCLA is a member-organization) made arrangements for a new stone to memorialize her.

Heather Robertson is the young lady who assisted in the ceremony. The wreaths were furnished by the Snowden Chapter of the Order of Confederate Rose. The 10th SCVI furnished the Color Guard.
