The Delaware Confederate Monument is a private monument in Georgetown, Delaware built on the grounds of the Georgetown Historical Society, unveiled in 2007.[1][2][3]

The granite monument features a Confederate battle flag and the names of more than 95 Delawareans, both soldiers and civilians, who supported the Confederate war effort, including former Delaware Governor William H. H. Ross.

This is the only Confederate monument in Delaware because it was a border state.
