A brochure about the Old City Cemetery includes the following additional information:
"Confederate soldiers who died during the Civil War are interred in this plot. Records of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, an organization that has tended these graves since the end of the War, report that 186 men--known and unknown--were buried in six grave lots: "Some were brought here after the Battle of Natural Bridge, some after [the Battle of] Olustee, and some died in camps and hospitals near here." The United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Sons of Confederate Veterans conduct services here each year on Confederates Memorial Day (April 26th)."
