    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Statue of Rear Admiral Raphael Semmes, Mobile, Alabama. Removed: 5 June 2020 
This standing figure represents the Confederate Rear Admiral Raphael Semmes. Dressed in a long coat and cap, Semmes has one hand on his hip and holds binoculars in the other. His gaze is distant, as if he is looking out to sea. Infamous for his raids on Northern ships, Semmes captained the C.S. steamer Alabama during the Civil War. A small bronze relief of this ship used feature on the monument's plinth but, following the statue's removal to the nearby History Museum of Mobile in June 2020, this is no longer present. The monument was removed from public space following the murder of George Floyd and the protests his death inspired. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Accomack County Confederate Monument, erected in the town of Parksley, honors the Confederate volunteers from Accomack and Northampton counties. This standing soldier statue has an interesting history, as it was a product of intercounty disputes. The original campaign for the monument was initiated by a local newspaper in 1898 and called for the monument's erection at the county seat in Accomac. Nearby Parksley, however, advocated to house the monument and eventually secured their bid. The monument, a private soldier standing at parade rest surmounting a plinth, still stands in Parklsey. Recent efforts to remove the statue revealed that the town does not, and has never, owned the monument.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[New Bedford Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument   (New Bedford, Massachusetts)]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Made possible through the efforts of the local Women's Relief Corps Post 74, the Plainville Soldiers' Monument serves as a dedication to the efforts of the soldiers and veterans in the organization known as the Grand Army of the Republic. It was erected to promote memorialization and to petition for pensions for Civil War nurses. The praise, rather dated in its framing of gender roles, nonetheless is significant in acknowledging the important and ever-expanding work done by women during and after the war. Although the image and inscription only mention men, this monument was a feat succeeded by and for the women of the Civil War.]]></dcterms:description>

The monument, like the one in Gettysburg, commemorates the 386 men of the 20th Maine Volunteers who secured the Union left flank in Little Round Top on the 2nd of July 1863, against the Alabamians. The Brewer monument, dedicated in 1997, unlike its counterpart in Little Round Top, bears no inscription of the men that died in battle. The monument was created to compliment the statue of Joshua L Chamberlain to whom the park is named after, as he led the charge in Gettysburg, for which he was awarded with the Medal of Honor.]]></dcterms:description>

The statue was added in 2002 in Chamberlain Freedom Park, five years after the park was built, and it is Maine's only official monument commemorating the Underground Railway. The figure is portrayed only up to the groin and he is shown to be wearing a torn shirt which is meant to depict the shirt, which was found in the attic of the Holyoke House was demolished. Although the monument is relatively recent, the site on which it is placed is historically significant, as a stone-lined shaft was discovered below the Holyoke House in 1995. The base of the statue is meant to represent that stone-line shaft as the figures seems to be emerging out of the underground tunnel.]]></dcterms:description>

Stedman, whom the monument inscription calls a “typical volunteer soldier of the Civil War.” Born in Hartford and educated at Trinity College, less than a kilometer from the site, Stedman had been widely mourned in the city when he was killed in 1864 during the siege of Petersburg, Virginia, where a federal fortification was christened Fort Stedman the same year.]]></dcterms:description>

The North Andover figure however maintains a different pose to its predecessor, as he appears to be stepping forward with his rifle ready in his arms, rather than casually slung over one shoulder. The monument's creation was repeatedly postponed, until 1912 when it was decided that it should be used to commemorate soldiers from North Andover who fought in the Civil War and other wars. The monument bears no inscription except for that of Kitson's name and the Gorham Co. founder's mark. ]]></dcterms:description>
