House Full Of Graves In Abandoned Plantation Cemetery! (Huge African American Cemetery Discovered!)

Join us on this poignant journey into the past with Adventures Into History, as Cecil and I explore the Childs-Mizell-Crouch Family Cemetery. Nestled atop a hill, this cemetery holds a unique and somber piece of American history, dating back to the Pre-Civil War Plantation Era.

Our exploration begins with the fascinating yet dilapidated grave house shelter, a relic that has seen better days but tells a powerful story of the era it represents. We carefully investigate and read the gravestones, unearthing the stories of those who rested here long ago.

Surrounding the well-documented plots of the Childs-Mizell-Crouch families are numerous unmarked graves. These silent stones likely belong to individuals who were enslaved on the plantation, their histories untold but presence undeniable.

As we traverse the side of the hill, the scene shifts to a vast African-American cemetery, a poignant reminder of the lives connected to the Childs plantation. This cemetery extends the narrative from bondage to freedom, with graves dating back to at least 1914 and progressing to more recent times in the 1960s and 70s towards the hill’s crest.

This video is a deep dive into the intertwined histories of two communities, linked by the land and the legacies they left behind. It’s a story of resilience, remembrance, and the indelible links that time cannot sever.
