Confederate POW Cemetery
Point Lookout, Maryland
This picture is of the monument over the mass grave in the Pt. Lookout Confederate POW Cemetery in Pt. Lookout, Maryland, where over 14,000 Confederate soldiers are buried. There are three verified members of the 28th Georgia who died and are buried there: Cpl. Robert A. Crouch (Co. E), Pvt. Richard B. Loyd (Co. E), and Pvt. R.S. McClurg (Co. G). Of the over 14,000 Confederate soldiers who died at Pt. Lookout and are buried there, Federal authorities only recorded about 4,000 of their names. The other 10,000 have been lost - forever gone in the annals of history.
