Resaca May 14-15 After the fighting, Mary Green buries soldiers of the 40th, 41st, 42nd, 43rd, and 52nd where they fell, in her rose garden. Her family eventually donates two acres for what became Resaca Confederate Cemetery, the first in Georgia dedicated to Southern soldiers. In 2005, 42nd Georgia descendant, Robert Eliott, paused at the gravesite of B.B. Ayers of the 42nd. The final resting place of J. H. Martin of the 43rd Georgia can be seen in the background
