CARNTON CEMETERY
The family cared for the men for several months, but they were upset about the dead soldiers. It took them several months to bury the bodies seperately on part of their land. They spent years trying to find out who they were, and place markers with the information on their graves. They spent the rest of their lives caring for the cemetery. Mrs. Carnton kept a log in a book that's there, and the Historical Society has put the information on the internet and in the archives. The curator told us that people come all the time to find their relatives.
