The Veterans Administration provides gravestones for American veterans graves, including Confederate war dead. They differ from Union gravestones in that they are pointed, while Union gravestones are rounded. Most people reading this thread already know that, I am sure.

There is a confederate cemetery/Park in Beach Grove, Tennessee the site of the Battle of Hoover's Gap. It has one Union grave stone in it, The person had fought in the Revolutionary War. Why this fellow was buried there and not some where else I do not know. I know nothing else about the guy, I have not research it.
