During 2005 members of the 10th held a fund raiser this year to raise the monies necessary to replace a
very old and very weather-beaten marker of Lt. Col. John M. Legett of the 10th Louisiana Infantry. Lt. Col.
Legett enlisted July 22, 1861 at Camp Moore, LA "Louisiana Rebels".
Legett's final resting place is in Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond Virginia. The stone was replaced in
December 2005 by the SOUTHERN SOLDIERS REMEMBRANCE FUND.
On September 16th 2006, members travelled to Richmond for a re dedication ceremony.

During the past two years, the ACWHRS has been raising funds to have new grave markers placed on
the final resting place of all members of the 10th La. In Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond. Spearheaded
by our members, there remain but a few to be completed. It is our hope that soon all 28 markers will have
been replaced. The task of replacing the markers is being done with the help of the Southern Soldiers
Remembrance Fund and we are grateful for their leadership in this important matter. For a link to the
markers, please click here.
