Civil War American National Cemeteries
"rest on embalmed and sainted dead,
Dear as the blood ye gave;
No impious footprints here shall tread
The herbage of your grave; Nor shall your glory be forgot While Fame her record keeps, Or honor points the hallowed spot Where valor proudly sleeps.
In this as well as all other National cemeteries, proper records have been made of those buried in each, bound in printed volumes, copies of which have been furnished to the various States.
The main entrance to this cemetery is on the west side, but visitors usually enter at the south gate. East of this gate is the inscription, "National Cemetery at Andersonville. "
