In the Old City Cemetery, gathered around the flagstaff near the center of the 
cemetery are military markers for a "Circle of Heroes."

Some of these individuals have the bronze VA marker in the "circle" as well as 
another tombstone.   The bronze VA markers were placed together in the circle 
by the flagstone, even though the "actual" grave might have been elsewhere in 
the cemetery.    For example,  Moses Livingston Choate has his bronzome marker 
in the circle, and another tombstone in the cemetery at another location.
