Tenn. sodiers ID-Alleghany Co.,Va.

In Mountain View Cemetery in Clifton Forge,Va.(Alleghany Co.) there is a marker that states-"Buried in this area are eight unknown Tennessee soldiers who served in the Confederate States Army. Died at Oakland Church" Oakland Church is about two miles west of Clifton Forge. The Va.Central RR ended in this area.,then called Jackson River Depot. The 1st Tenn. was at Warm Springs,Bath Co.,a few miles north of this area in 1861 per Co."Aytch". These men probably died of disease as there was no fighting in this area in 1861. Local SCV Camp trying to ID there soldiers. See marker at at Mountain View Cemetery on findagrave.com. Thanks for any help.
