The above monument is located in the Confederate Cemetery in Fredericksburg, Va. I had to split the plaque  on the front of the monument above so it could be read.  I tried to get a full version of it, but it could not be read properly.  Click on each picture for a larger one.  One big shame about the Confederate Cemetery, most of the headstones are becoming unreadable.  Too bad someone that lives in the area couldn't get replacement headstones. They can be ordered and the only cost would be to install them.  That would be if you ordered the headstones that are the flat bronze which would need a concrete base.
Virginia

Virginia was initially reluctant to secede from the Union. When the men who attended its convention voted for secession in April 1861, it was the third time they had brought the issue to a vote. And they voted to secede only after Lincoln issued a call to arms to suppress the secessionist tendencies in the Southern states. In doing so, Virginians brought upon themselves four years of constant hardship and devastation.

Much of the war was fought in Virginia. The state was the focal point for a number of reasons. First, it had more manufacturers and more mines than any other state. It had nearly 20% of the railroad track of the Southern states. Its state capital, Richmond, was also the Confederacy's capital and was only 90 miles away - a four day march - from the Union's capital at Washington, D.C. Because armies focus on capturing the enemy's capital, the Federals concentrated on capturing Richmond. The Confederates in turn worked to capture Washington D.C. The counties in between were doomed to suffer the devastation that follows in the wake of armies. By 1865, the state's handsome towns were wrecked, its manufacturing centers destroyed, its farms ruined. Virginians starved and found themselves prey to foraging soldiers, looters and lawless bands. And a half million men became casualties within its borders.
