Virginia, Fredericksburg
![]()
This marker commemorates the indigent and unknown once interred on this site. Provided by the City in 1816 and once called the Colored Cemetery, it was the final resting place for former slaves and free blacks. Long barren and unused, in 1920 this site became the location of the City's new high school after the recovered remains were reinterred in other cemeteries.
