Commander John N. Sawyer
The City of Richmond officials, C-I-C McMichael, and Virginia Division Commander John Sawyer have all signed the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the City of Richmond. This agreement does not transfer the deed or title to Oakwood Cemetery - Confederate Section to the SCV, but it will give the Virginia Division the sole authority to place upright markers for each Confederate Veteran buried there and improvements or markers of any kind. The Virginia Division will also have the exclusive responsibility of maintaining the 10 acres of grounds in the Confederate section of Oakwood Cemetery.
