A visit to Mill Springs, National Cemetery 28 Jan 2018 - ALBUM Click on headline for complete story with photo album By Kristy Keene (Sun 28 Jan 2018) Even though today was gloomy, we made a trip to Nancy KY to visit the Mill Springs National Cemetery, and took photos to share. Here is a little history of the site from Wikipedia : "The site of Mill Springs National Cemetery was originally the battlefield cemetery of the Battle of Mill Springs, Sunday 19 January 1862, initially designated Logan's Cross Roads Cemetery. Soldiers who fell in the battle were buried in large trenches. After the Civil War, it became an official National Cemetery and had its name changed. Many battlefield cemeteries in the region had their remains transferred to Mill Springs. "In 1867, additional land was donated to the federal government for the cemetery by William H. Logan, and he and his wife were buried in the cemetery upon their deaths. "Mill Springs National Cemetery was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. "Mill Springs National Cemetery was on the list of the first National Cemeteries created. As small as it is, the cemetery still receives burials. It is one of the oldest National Cemeteries still in operation." - From Mill Springs National Cemetery This story was posted on 2018-01-29 10:54:09
