McGavock Confederate Cemetery – South Carolina Soldiers Marker (Franklin, Tennessee)

            Historic McGavock Confederate Cemetery on the grounds of the Carnton Plantation in Franklin, Tennessee.   The Civil War Battle of Franklin was a disaster for the Confederate Army of Tennessee.  Six Confederate generals were killed, seven were wounded and one was captured.  Most soldiers were buried on the battlefield following the November 30, 1864 battle.  Union soldiers were reinterred in the new Nashville National Cemetery.  In 1866, John McGavock donated two-acres on the Carnton Plantation in Franklin for a cemetery to relocate the graves of nearly 1,500 unclaimed confederate soldiers.  Unknown soldiers were buried in mass graves identified by stone markers. Others were grouped by State and buried in single graves with small markers with names.

The McGavock Confederate Cemetery is part of the 1960 Franklin Battlefield National Historic Landmark.  It was also added to the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing resource to the Franklin Battlefield listing (NRHP No. 66000734) and the Carnton listing (NRHP No. 73001857).
