Fort Donelson National Cemetery "ROLL OF HONOR"
Soon after the war,Fort Donelson National Cemetery was established and the remains of 670 Union soldiers were reinterred here. These soldiers had been buried on the battlefield, in local cemeteries, in hospital cemeteries, and in near by towns. The large number of unknown soldiers-512-can be attributed to the haste cleaning up the battlefield and to the fact that Civil War soldiers did not carry government-issued identification. This list does not include the 512 unknown grave numbers.
