Civil War Grave Markers

This was an Eagle Scout Project completed by Shane Douglas of Boy Scout Troop 323. With the help of the Genealogical Society of Monroe County, he was able to identify 99 Civil War Veterans that were buried in the City of Waterloo; 98 Union Soldiers and 1 Confederate Soldier. Word of the project sparked much interest from the local community as well as surrounding communities and with contributions made by businesses, organizations and individuals, Shane was able to order bronze markers to place near the headstones/burial sites of these soldiers.
