TIP #69 - CIVIL WAR CASUALITIES - KY CONFEDERATES BURIED IN GA

I'm still working out of Volume 1 of Collins' History of Kentucky and
jumped ahead a bit in the "time line" or annals of KY History. During the
Civil War period, he had a long list of those killed in battle, as
cataloged by a Charles Herbst who published a list. It does not list the
counties from which these KY soldiers came, but maybe it will be worth the
typing to list them here. Mr. Herbst, a Confederate soldier out of Capt
Aston MADEIRA's Co from Covington, KY visited each grave and marked them.
Since this list is extremely old, it is quite possible that many of these
graves are no longer to be found.
