DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THIS?
Mt Harmony Cemetery likely has black women and children buried there but no black men. Black men were buried in a Black Cem up behind the ridge the church is on, up on Ruell Hollands land. There was also a black family cem at the bottom of what is now Greenwood lake.
