For a local take, see if the names of black Civil War veterans that are buried in Laurel Hill are available. The monument is in the southeast corner and their graves were unmarked for almost 100 years.

Take a picture of the monument and let me know.

Yes, Prospect Hill Cemetery is trying to obtain grave markers from the VA for such soldiers. I wonder how to find out who is in charge of Laurel Hill and what efforts they have made in such area. Many interesting graves in Omaha. https://graveyardsofomaha.com/
