Prattville Dragoon Compatriot Cleans Local Graveyard with the Old Autauga Historic Society

Dragoons' Color Sergeant John Dennis with the Old Autauga Historical Society cleaned the Jackson Cemetery  located out in the Autaugaville area Saturday morning February 29th.  Following, they discussed another cemetery down the road that had at least one Civil War Veteran and perhaps more. The group stopped by to evaluate it and started cleaning it up too.  They found one grave marker which they repositioned from the foot of the grave to the headstone. Larry Caver of the Historical Society will research a couple names of men interred there to see if they may have served but do not have a Confederate marker. John requested a number of Confederate flags with wooden sticks to place at Confederate veterans' graves when performing this community service project.
