Lincoln Memorial Cemetery

Local African Americans conducted burials at this graveyard as early as the 1910s. In 1932, a group chartered as the Lincoln Cemetery Association acquired the surrounding 11 ¾-ac. tract, after which this became known as Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. Most of the tract was later sold. Between 200 and 300 people are believed to be buried here. They include local families and community leaders. The Association dissolved in 1964. Burials stopped a few years later.
