Origin of Decoration Day and its spread after Civil War
Decoration Day began with Southern women during the Civil War to honor soldiers. Gen John A Logan later designated a day for memorials, expanding to those who died in later conflicts. Competing claims arose over who created the memorial, with Mrs Joseph H Morgan of Atlanta noted for a strong claim. Early observances featured flowers gathered from woods and simple services due to poverty and martial law.
