About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

In 2022, a single grave site was discovered on private property in York County, South Carolina. A total of 144 gravesites, believed to be those of enslaved Africans, were later identified by archaeologists and the property owners. The cemetery property is protected by a conservation easement with Nation Ford Land Trust and will never be developed.

The actual location will be revealed at a later date.

Gray stone markers, with numbers 1 - 144, have been added in the two acre area.
