The View of Carnton Plantation - from my back yard.

Every couple of years we get a decent  snow fall here in Franklin Tennessee.  Just across the pond in my back yard you can see the snow covered roof of the old Carnton Plantation house.  

The historic house was used as a hospital for after the Battle of Franklin (November 30, 1864).  The McGavock family and Franklin citizens led by Carrie McGavock, buried the 1750 dead Confederates on their property and saw to it records were kept and most of the names and graves were marked.

The McGavock Confederate Cemetery is the largest privately owned and maintained military cemetery in the United States.
