You might want to visit some Civil War Memorials. We have acquired the book: Sacred Memories: The Civil War Monument Movement in Texas. This book is divided into geographic sections - East, North, North Central, Central, West and the Panhandle, South, and Southeast Texas. It tells the story of each monument and its creation. It has general maps that show the county and type (Confederate or Union) of monuments.
