Maintained by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, the McGavock Confederate Cemetery is believed to be the largest privately held Confederate cemetery in the United States.

It contains the remains of nearly 1,500 Confederate casualties from the November 1864 Battle of Franklin, buried by state, including members of the Florida Brigade. The Florida section contains a monument and 4 gravesites.

Approximately 5-foot tall, the Florida shaft monument was erected in the late 19th century.
