I vaguely remember reading about some human remains being found during a road widening project there years ago.
I grew up in north Mississippi in the late 50’s to late 60’s, about 40 miles from Ole Miss at Oxford.
To people there, the Civil War never really ended.
I remember as a child that an old, old man, probably in his late 80’s at that time, pointed to a ridge across a newly built road widening project in front of his rural home, saying to me in hushed tones, “There’s a Yankee soldier buried over on that hill.”............
Yup that’s true. guide last summer says there is no doubt more remains around, but they don’t want to disturb them
