Civil War Monuments
Putney
This monument, a unique combination of a family's burials and a town's Civil War memorial, sits straight back from the gate in the center of East Putney Cemetery.
"Here follow the names of the Sons of Putney who perished in the war of the rebellion of 1861. They died for you & me".
