    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The place where the Jefferson Cemetery Shaft stands today began as a temporary repository for the bodies of dead Confederate soldiers during the war. The site was formally given commemoration in 1892 by the Brown-Harman Camp of Confederate Veterans. Later at an unknown date, the site was given to the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, and it is this organization that remains associated with the monument. It is unknown as to when the shaft monument was formally erected as well as the cost, artist, and creator. The site has no official boundaries as it remains unknown the total number of Confederate soldiers buried at the location. Today, the Jeffersonville community describes the site as the County's most sacred shrine and monument. ]]></dcterms:description>
