Hogg - Webb - Norwood Cemetery
Hillsborough, Orange County, North Carolina, USA
Additional information: In 1974 the large cemetery was located "on a heavily wooded, boulder-strewn hillside. The waters of the Eno far below can be both seen and heard. There exists apparently only one marked stone, now fallen, dated 1852." The notes additionally mention a wire fence that "once ran down the hillside." In 2006 the marked stone could not be located and the cemetery had been "squeezed" by landscaping of the two commercial buildings to the north and south sides. But the wire fence still remained. Nothing at the site would any longer suggest that this was once a large African-American cemetery.
