Another cemetery we visited recently was dedicated to the Confederate dead, on the property of Beauvoir, Jefferson Davis's summer home, which was rebuilt after Katrina and recently reopened. Jeff Davis' father, Samuel is buried there. Not sure if this is his original resting place or not. He died in 1824, a veteran of the Revolutionary War. He did not live to see his son elected president of the Confederacy.
