Thomas was probably buried at Arlington bc family couldn't afford to have his body shipped home.
It seems likely that this was the first time any family member had visited his grave.
Thank you Arlington National Cemetery for caring for his grave these 160 years.

I recently visited the grave of my great great granduncle, Thomas Rutledge, at Arlington National Cemetery. He was one of the first few hundred soldiers buried there, following his death after the Battle of Wilderness Virginia.
Shot May 6, died June 9 1864.

'We need wonder.' ~ Mona Eltahawy
Yes, Mona, we need wonder - every minute of everyday..
Awe-inspiring, goosebump creating, heart opening wonder.
What doesn't come to us, we must create
Mona Eltahawy What an insight. 'Selfish' really is the ultimate insult these people have to fling at women.
