These headstones represent soldiers from Louisiana and Mississippi who died at the hospitals located at Mississippi Springs and Coopers Wells. These soldiers from the Army of Mississippi died from disease contracted through the rigors of military service. Twelve of these soldiers are buried in cemeteries across Mississippi, one is buried near Mississippi Springs and the rest are buried near Coopers Wells. After a long and unsuccessful attempt by the Mississippi Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans, to set the stones at their burial place, the stones were set here to allow their service and sacrifice to their country be known and honored by their families and future generations of Southerners.
