Further research has revealed that most of the burials here were moved to what is now known as "The Pines" cemetery.
A new sign has been added to this location that is a marble monument with the words "Slave Cemetery". Death certificates for this time use "Colored Cemetery" as the place of burial.
This has also been called the Old Quarter Cemetery.
This cemetery was used until 1931.
