Mapping Kentucky History Barren County Markers

Marker reads, The President Confederate States Army, in 1862, was authorized to confer a Medal of Honour upon one enlisted man of each company for every signal victory. At first dress-parade, thereafter, the men engaged in the battle chose, by vote, the soldier most worthy to receive this honour. More Confederates from Barren than any other Kentucky county received this medal.
