George...

I don't have much, but the Exchange Hotel in Orange which was built in 1860 for the railroad, was coverted into a hospital during the war. I am not familiar with a cemetery.

During 1862 many sick and convalescing soldiers were housed with families in private homes throughout the area. There was also a temporary hospital in the region at Gordonsville, VA.
