We have Knutes history.

Lt Murphy is buried in the old city cemetery in Waycross Ga. A lone blue in a wash of grey. We were thinking of having a little service for him on May 31 assuming he has never had one.

Every Confederate Memorial day (April 26th in Ga) we put Confederate flags on the graves of our soldiers. We put a lone Federal flag on Lt Murphys grave.

If we knew of any connections to the present, we would send pics and info. If anyone would send a little dirt from around Indanpolis, we would sprinkle it on his grave as a touch from home.

Thanks for your inquiry.
