The Confederate Mass Grave Monument in Somerset in Pulaski County, Kentucky, near Nancy, Kentucky, honors the Confederate soldiers who are buried here who died at the Battle of Mill Springs.
These soldiers were from Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee, and number over one hundred in total.
[2][3] The monument was built in 1910 by Bennett H. Young, who during the war rode with Confederate general John Hunt Morgan.
Young was drawn to the area due to hearing about the nearby Zollie Tree, which was decorated by a local woman each Memorial Day in honor of general Felix K. Zollicoffer, who died at the Battle of Mill Springs.
Both are now in what is called Zollicoffer Park, part of the larger Mill Springs Battlefield.
