Abstract: general (displayLabel="Scope and Contents note")
The memorial features a black granite obelisk, partially encircled by eight stone markers featuring the names of the members of the 29th Colored Regiments. The obelisk itself includes images and/or texts on all four sides. The west side features a bronze plaque with a bronze bas-relief that depicts soldiers carrying the flag of the 29th Regiment and the U. S. flag. The plaque also shows the unit’s dates of engagement and the names of those killed in battle or who died of disease. The south side of the obelisk gives a history of the regiment. The east side presents two photographs etched into the granite of Alexander H. Newton and Daniel S. Lathrop, the two members who achieved the unit’s highest rank of sergeant major. The north side includes the work’s dedicatory information.
