Note: The Union claimed they buried 187 Confederate soldiers after the battle, recovered 40 to 50 wounded men, and captured 80 South Carolinians. There are not records of what they did with the Union soldiers killed in battle. I am finding soldiers that fell at Haws' Shop in other national cemeteries, but there is not record that their remains are buried there, only the markers. Some are buried in Yorktown, so it is strange that they would carry some through battle to one cemetery, and then a couple of soldiers further to York County, Virginia. If the soldiers were re-interred in 1866, then this would make sense.
