Exploring Oak Grove Cemetery

Today's adventure takes us to Bristol, Illinois near Yorkville and to Oak Grove Cemetery. This cemetery is over 200 years old and contains an unusual high number of graves of Civil War soldiers who died in battle or as a result of wounds. This includes the Scofield brothers who both fought and died in the Civil War. So come join me as we as we explore Oak Grove Cemetery.

This was a nice walk through Bryan. I appreciate you walking through and naming all those that you could read. We remember them again each time we say their names. It means more to read as many as you can down to the youngest infant. It shows a part of each family's dynamic and what they must have gone through as the wars came and went. It took a toll on each family. 🙏♥️

22:00 Chickamauga was the second bloodiest battle of the Civil War, ranking only behind Gettysburg. Thank you for the tour, thank you for the pictures, and thank you for the stories.
