Captain E. D. Baxter Camp 2034 Sons of Confederate Veterans in Fairview
placed stones for 5 area veterans.
On a beautiful fall day the members of SCV
Camp 2034 held a memorial for four unknown Confederate soldiers in Walker
Cemetery in Northwestern Williamson County. The four unknown soldiers
were killed in a skirmish just a short distance from the cemetery. After
the Walker Cemetery memorial the members traveled to Hudgins Cemetery
in Fairview to place a marker on the grave of Private William Jackson
Hudgins.
Thanks to all the compatriots that participated in the memorial
services.
