Opened in 1863, the Marietta Confederate Cemetery is the final resting place for more than 3,000 soldiers. Mrs. Jane Porter Glover donated a corner of her property for the burial of 20 Confederate soldiers who died in a train wreck. Every Confederate state is represented, as well as Kentucky, Maryland and Missouri, and the cemetery remains the largest Confederate cemetery south of Richmond. A large number of the buried soldiers fought nearby in The Battle of Kennesaw Mountain and The Battle of Kolb's Farm.
