                <text>Little is known about the marble standing soldier positioned at solider arms that looms in front of the courthouse in Lebanon, Virginia. Erected on July 8th, 1914, the monument was a result of townspeople from Lebanon and neighbouring cities who had begun to raise funds for a monument that commemorated the Confederate soldiers of Russell County in 1904. The artist, creator, and the cost of the monument remain unknown, but the community's aims for the monument can be construed from the inscription; it speaks of a desire for continuity across generations.</text>

It commemorates not only the local Buchanan company of soldiers that was organized in 1859, but all soldiers who fought during the war, as well as Confederate women and the veterans that survived it. Erected on April 1, 1902, by the Botetourt Artillery Monument Association, the granite pillar stands atop a base that is adorned with inscriptions on all sides. Designed by artist Andrew Wray at the cost of $1100, the source of funding for the monument is not readily available.</text>

                <text>Cast in white bronze, a lone soldier stands in parade rest atop a plinth which is decorated with a bas-relief of Robert E. Lee. The monument, now located outside Carroll County Courthouse, was erected in 1907. It was originally situated in the middle of Main Street but was relocated to its current location in 1930 due to the widening of Main Street. Having deteriorated over the years, the monument was restored with funds from the Sons of Confederate Veterans Jubal Early Camp #1691. It was re-erected on February 28, 2007 and rededicated on April 28, 2007. </text>

                <text>A bronze soldier, with musket drawn and pointed forward, stands atop a granite plinth. On the base, there are two bronze relief panels, each depicting a lone woman, one holding the shield of Virginia, the other a Confederate flag. The statue, designed by Frederick W. Sievers, was dedicated on 3 June 1908 in the presence of a large crowd of approximately 5,000. It was gifted by the William E. Jones Camp of Confederate Veterans of Abingdon to the Daughters of the Confederacy, who took on the responsibility of maintaining the statue. In Summer 2020, a petition to remove the monument was started, but as of October 2021 the monument remains outside the courthouse.</text>

                <text>A granite soldier stands at parade rest atop a plinth outside Marion Courthouse. It was produced by Charles M. Walsh at a cost of $1,100, and unveiled on July 4, 1903, to a crowd of 10,000, with dedicatory addresses from Robert E. Lee, Jr. and John W. Daniel. The monument remains in its original position, and became a location for counter protests during the BLM protests in Summer 2020, with armed locals vowing to defend the monument. </text>

              <text>Near this spot, in February 1863, a recruiting office opened to enlist men for the first black regiment authorized to fight for the Union cause. The men who volunteered here formed Company C of the 54th Regiment of Massachusetts. If captured, these recruits faced the prospect of execution or slavery. Yet by the end of the war more than 185,000 African Americans had volunteered for the Union Army and Navy.

                <text>This historical marker is located at the site of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Plaza, which was dedicated to the African-American New Bedford soldiers who served in the war in February 1999. The marker was erected by the National Park Service as a part of the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park, and marks the site of the first office to recruit African-American soldiers during the Civil War. 120 men enlisted in the building, and the first regiment of black soldiers to fight in the Civil War was formed. There is also a colorful mural nearby with scenes depicting the regiments' participation in the Civil War, in contrast with the black-and-white photographs displayed on the historical marker. The building no longer exists, but in its place is a small, round, urban plaza with a fountain in the center. There are plans for a prospective monument on the site.</text>

                <text>Built on a rubble foundation with wooden walls, the Mansfield Memorial Library is a Victorian Gothic style building in Bristol County, MA. The land for the building was donated by Elizabeth F. Noble in 1898 and construction began in 1899. The building was conceived to serve a dual-function as both a public library and memorial to Civil War soldiers. The idea for constructing this building originated with Henry H. Fairbanks, the Quartermaster of the John Rogers Post of the Grand Army of the Republic. Representatives of the G.A.R. were present on the day of dedication and took part in a memorial procession to the site of the building, along with mounted police. The building currently serves to hold the offices of the Mansfield School Department. </text>

                <text>On July 4th, 1866, this tall, obelisk-shaped, stone monument was dedicated to the soldiers from New Bedford who died in the Civil War. The monument is located in the center of Clasky Common Park; a simple, minimalistic design with an eagle at the pinnacle of the obelisk. No particular soldier is named on the monument, but the South side is engraved with the word "Army" and the North with "Navy." This monument is somewhat atypical in that it calls the Civil War a "struggle with slavery and treason", explicitly referring to slavery as a main cause of the war. The monument was funded by the city, with money paid to George Meacham. Currently, the monument is surrounded by a tall, iron fence in order to protect it from vandalism. The town's annual memorial day ceremony takes place in the park in front of the monument.

                <text>In 1993, this bronze plaque was affixed to the side of an old powder magazine in Fort Phoenix State Reservation Park in Fairhaven, MA. The plaque commemorates Donald R. Bernard, a man who was important to the town for having led Civil and Revolutionary War reenactments at Fort Phoenix. His legacy continues today with the Fairhaven Village Militia, who run living history encampments at Fort Phoenix. Bernard was a local historian and Fairhaven's fire chief; the plaque was dedicated after his death and the reenactment group that he led - the Fourth Old Dartmouth Militia - fired a salute at the ceremony in his honor. Local politicians spoke at the ceremony, including state representative Bill Strauss, who claimed that Bernard's reenactments made people more aware of the location's history. The dedication ceremony was recorded and broadcast on local television. </text>
