Confederate Grave Markers Installed In Union County, South Carolina

On Saturday, June 4, 2022, five brand new Confederate soldiers headstones were placed on previously unmarked grave sites this morning. Members of several South Carolina Division Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCSCV) camps from the upstate worked hard to install the headstones for these men at their final resting places at Padgett's Creek Baptist Church in Union County, South Carolina.




A special thanks to members of the General States Rights Gist Camp #1451 (Union, SC), Captain Moses Wood Camp #125 (Gaffney, SC), and the Adam Washington Ballenger Camp #68 (Spartanburg, SC) and others for their contributions and the work they put in to honor the memory of these Southern men and Confederate veterans.

The following are the names and units these men served in:

Pvt. William Barnett, Company B, 15th SC Infantry, CSA. Died In The War
Pvt. Byrd Murphy Bobo, Company H, 5th SC State Troops, CSA.

Pvt. John Bobo, Company C, 18th SC Infantry, CSA.
Pvt. Shelton "Shell" Eubanks, Company B, 15th SC Infantry, CSA.
Pvt. G. Stanford Gregory, Company A, 18th SC Infantry, CSA.


May they Rest In Eternal Peace.
