The photo in the article is of the woman who headed it up it seems. I'm
guessing that they might not have known there even an SUVCW out there much
less how to get in touch. I don't think its too late to late for some
outreach as she may have some ancestors that qualify her for DUV or
affiliated orders or have sons that will qualify her for the SUVCW. Then
assist with grave markings, etc there. Hopefully when Tennessee/Alabama
return from their encampment they can make a follow up to this.
