On this day, 2 years ago (December 13th, 2022), I exhumed the remains of my ancestor, Lieutenant General Ambrose Powell Hill in Richmond, VA. When the city workers got down to the 3 large "cap stones" above his grave I stepped in. The first cap stone was removed by crane and I saw A.P. Hill's remains. The casket was completely deteriorated. So I asked the city workers to get me a tarp so I could cover his remains. Because the news vultures were trying to get photos. I also asked the workers to park their vehicles behind me which was where the news media was standing with their cameras, drooling for photos of his remains. I also had to make threats to get a man to stop flying a drone who also wanted pictures.
