The following is from a stone at the entrance to the cemetery:
In 1912 the Shady Oaks Cemetery was established by the local African American community through the selling of peanuts and potato pies. The people buried here served in many historical occupations throughout the county. The cemetery remains a significant historical monument to the early African Americans that settled in Brevard.
