It’s been
a long time coming,
but we raised the funds for Confederate Memorial Park's Dedication!!
Even The Threat
of Hanna Did Not Stop Descendants and Supporters from
Honoring Those Who Suffered At Pt. Lookout.

There is a sweet, sequestered spot,
where peace and silence reign,
a fair God's acre is the lot, where sleep the Southern slain ...

The Pt. Lookout
POW Descendants Organization's Project |
We purchased over three acres of land next to
the Pt. Lookout Confederate Cemetery
in St.
Mary's
County,
Pt.
Lookout, MD. The purpose of Confederate Memorial Park, Inc.
is to honor the sacrifices of the POWs (military & civilian
of all races, men/women/children) who were imprisoned and who died
at Pt. Lookout, MD 1863-1865.
There were over 52,000 imprisoned in Pt. Lookout.
Think of all the descendants of these POWs throughout the United
States. Hopefully, eventually, all of them will visit the memorial
that will be erected to their family members. CMP will be a place
where people can visit to learn of unedited, non revised, no-compromise
history. It will be a serene, reverent place to visit that teaches
and honors the sacrifices of those American POW Veterans, who died
in captivity serving their country.
