More about this marker. Remembrance Garden consists of two stone monuments and an earth mound surrounded by stones that commemorates Confederate soldiers. The bench-shaped monument, erected in 2009, has the spotlight here because it is inscribed. The other one – a flower urn atop two pedestals on a base – has no visible inscription, except for a stone about its restoration. This site is listed on the Cedar Hill Cemetery marker as, “United Daughters of the Confederacy Memorial Rock Garden.”
