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.

African American Cemetery. Located on the north side of North Alley between Strawberry Alley and Prospect Street in historic New Market. The cemetery holds the graves of two African American Civil War soldiers as well as other grave markers located along north-south lines, facing east or west. Many markers apparently are missing, however. Historically, a church was located on the lot, but it has since been demolished; no above-ground remains are visible. This lot was also the site of a Freedman's Bureau school, in operation from November 1868 to May 1870.
