Burials at Huguenot Springs, Virginia

A convalescent hospital at the Huguenot Springs Hotel, a few miles west of Richmond, is the site of an estimated 250 Confederate burials, only 93 of which to date have been identified. Would welcome any information on soldiers who are buried here. The grounds are well maintained by the JEB Stuart Camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans; the hotel was destroyed by fire about 1889.
