Project to mark Union and Confederate graves
GREENBUSH CEMETERY
MONUMENT PROJECT
   
It was on Sunday, February 23, 1862 that prisoners arrived at
Lafayette, Indiana. There were 806 of them according to the
newspaper accounts of the time. Several days later, a roll call
of the "Secesh", as the Rebels were called, showed 712
prisoners.
Prisoners who died there, were buried in the Greenbush
Cemetery, where their graves may still be found in a row, marked
by small pointed stones, in the extreme northwest corner along
Greenbush Street. There are 28 of these stones. In 1912, the War
Department compiled a list of prisoners buried in Greenbush. A
copy of this list is on file today in the cemetery's office. The
tombstones bear the simple inscription "Unknown
C.S.A.". However, these men are known. Most of them were
from the 32nd and the 41st Tennessee Regiments, having only
served 4 1/2 months.
Sleeping beside the Rebel prisoners in Greenbush Cemetery in
an unbroken row are 22 Union soldiers. Their graves are marked by
stones with round tops, contrasting to the pointed stones over
the Confederates. These Union soldiers were killed in a wreck. On
October 31, 1864, a passenger and cattle train collided near
Culver, now Crane Station, located eight miles southeast of
Lafayette. Thirty were killed. The dead and injured were brought
to the Jones House and those unclaimed were buried in Greenbush.
Like the Confederate prisoners, these men were buried under
tombstones marked "Unknown U.S.A.". However, this is
not correct. The names and units of these soldiers are known.
Thus, today in Greenbush Cemetery there lie fifty boys of the
Blue and Gray. Enemies in the Civil War, they sleep side by side.
The Coalition plans to place a monument at Greenbush so that
their names are preserved for future generations.

Honor Civil War Dead.
