Georgia Division,
Sons of Confederate Veterans
Grave Registry
The Georgia Division participates in the National Confederate Graves Registry (CGR) which was established to provide a central database for recording the gravesite of those who served the Confederacy. It is meant as a research tool to those who may be searching for their Confederate ancestor.
Email us at scvgagraves@gmail.com regarding existing information in the CGR or questions on burials within Georgia.
Search the Registry
Within the CGR you will find the final resting place of the soldier or sailor along with his rank, company, and regiment. Birth and death information is listed when available. In many cases there also will be his service dates, other units in which he may have served, spouse/s and parents.
If you do not find the individual you are looking for, check back with us as the CGR is constantly growing.
