About this title

Synopsis

This addendum provides over 900 new War of 1812 veterans with known burial locations in Virginia. It provides more information on approximately 185 others as identified in the original publication by the War of 1812 Society in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Burials of War of 1812 Veterans in the Commonwealth of Virginia. It also lists fifteen deletions. These additions make a total of more than 5325 identified veteran burials in Virginia.

The reader will need to use the original Burials alongside this addendum for a thorough understanding of the work and for a full listing of abbreviations, references, and codes. This addendum lists alphabetically the additions, updates, and deletions to the veteran information. This addendum also features supplements to the original appendices and illustrations. Appendices include: Additions to Veteran List by County/Independent City, Additions to Cemetery List by County/Independent City, Additions to Code to and Bibliography of Service Sources, Additions to Code to and Bibliography of Burial Sources, Additions to General Bibliography of Other Sources, and Additions to Index of Names Other than Veterans and Unit Commanders. New photographs show cemetery plaques and monuments placed by the Society since the first book's publication.

The paragraphs of veteran information follow the same format as the original book. A key to the bolded category abbreviations is located at the bottom of each page. Readers should also take note of the additional explanations regarding birth and death dates and places, rank, unit (for militia soldiers), and cemetery names and locations.
