National Park Service:
Confederate soldiers who were killed or died of disease during the siege of Vicksburg were, by necessity, buried behind Southern lines. Mr. J.Q. Arnold, a local undertaker under contract with the Confederate government to bury soldiers, selected Cedar Hill (Vicksburg City) Cemetery as the final resting place for those who died in the defense of Vicksburg. As these men did not meet the criteria established by Congress for burial in a national cemetery, their remains were not disinterred, and remain today in the Soldiers' Rest section of Cedar Hill Cemetery, where their graves are lovingly maintained by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Approximately 5,000 Confederates have been re-interred there, of which 1,600 are identified. http://www.nps.gov/vick/historyculture/confederate-interments.htm
