In Response To: Re: Searching for SS Boss ()

Sir,

There are two graves that are at the intersection of N. Bell Road and the railroad tracks. The graves are right beside the tracks. One of the graves is marked with the name Rodolphus N. Amos, Company B, 6th Georgia Cavalry. The other is unmarked as of about three years ago. This road is just south of Loudon and would have been on the route that my research shows that Morrison's Brigade took on their attack on Philadephia, however, fighting took place back and forth over this terrain in the days afterward and the ground exchanged hands several types. I know of no other burials of soldiers from the action or skirmishes.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Respectfully,
