The Humphreys' Division Monument, Fredericksburg National Cemetery on Marye's Heights, Fredericksburg, Virginia. This monument commemorates the charge of General Andrew A. Humphreys' Division of Pennsylvania Infantry, Fifth Corps, on December 13, 1862. In 1908 the State of Pennsylvania erected this monument to honor the more than one thousand soldiers of Humphreys' division who were casualties in that attack. Ironically, many who lost their lives in these attacks now rest peacefully on this same ridge. (NPS information)
