Whitehall Confederate Memorial Park*
*Budd Fields Rd. Seven Springs NC (Whitehall)
Dedication service December 13, 2008 at 11:00am

*You and Your family are cordially invited to attend a dedication 
service for
the 13 CSA Soldiers killed at the battle of Whitehall on December 15 and 16
1862. This dedication service is also for the 90 CSA Sailors of the CSS Ram
Neuse built at Whitehall.

This project would not have been possible without the dozens of volunteers
that have given the land, their time and money, labor and materials for our
CSA ancestors, that gave their lives and family, to fight against tyranny in
the War of Northern Aggression 1861-1865.

This Confederate Memorial Park now belongs to the National Sons of
Confederate Veterans. The SCV has given $3,700.00 for improvements on
this property. Combined land, labor and materials donated total $12,000.00.

The granite marker was donated by members of the Edmund Ruffin Fire
Eaters Camp # 3000, Virginia Division SCV. This stone was once a floor
support from the Richmond, Virginia Theatre built in 1812.
