Following the Battle of Franklin, Nov. 30, 1864, John McGavcock, owner of Carnton, collected and buried here the bodies of 1496 Confederates. The five general officers killed there were interred elsewhere after being brought to the house. Other Confederates were later buried here, including Brig. Gen. Johnston K. Duncan.
