    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Eastville Courthouse Common Soldier   (Yorktown, Virginia)]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The common soldier Confederate monument in Eastville is one of two courthouse monuments on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. The statue features a private soldier standing at parade rest surmounting a plinth, base, dado, and column. Unusually, when conceptualizing the monument in 1913, county residents opted to dismantle, move, and reconstruct the county courthouse to accommodate the monument. It was then erected on "Eastville's Historic Court Green" in front of the rebuilt courthouse in 1914. This monument is similar to the one at Parksley, as they share the same sponsor and pay tribute to Confederate soldiers in both counties. Following a 3-1 vote by county supervisors, the statue was dismantled and moved to storage on August 26, 2021.]]></dcterms:description>
