In the book Confederates in the Attic by Tony Horwitz he recounts his visit to the National Cemetery at Salisbury, NC-
The log for Union soldiers wasn't long. "Most of the corpses were stripped of their clothes, tossed on dead-wagons and dumped in those trenches," Stice said, "so we don't know a whole lot of the names." Salisbury's tiny graveyard held more unknown dead than any other National Cemetery in America.
From a Website which tells the history of the 128 NYS Volunteers.
William, his fellow townsmen Potter Burton, James Norton and George Tipple, and nearly four thousand other Union soldiers were buried en masse in Salisbury's 18 long trenches- the largest group of unknown soldiers in American history.
