Dragoon Compatriot Works Historic Cemeteries

Camp 1524 Color Sergeant John Dennis again worked at Indian Hill cemetery on Tuesday September 3rd, cleaning the remaining length of fencing bringing it to a gleaming white.  He also cut down some brush growing under the trees on the north side of the cemetery.  After that, he drove out Hwy 14 west past Autaugaville to the Hall Cemetery where he continued cutting and removing the undergrowth in that historic cemetery.  John plans on cutting some briers back and clearing a path around the perimeter outside the wrought iron fence encompassing the cemetery.  John's tireless work and dedication brings honor to these men and women who were founders of their Alabama communities in the 19th century including many brave and noble Confederate veterans.  The photos below show the Hall cemetery before and after John's work on Tuesday.
