Point of Rocks African-American Cemetery
Frederick County, Maryland

Lat: 39° 16' 54"N, Lon: 77° 32' 06"W

Contributed by Anne Braun, Sep 13, 2003 [annieb1961@comcast.net]. Total records = 83.

In Point of Rocks, from the intersection of Highway 28 and Point of Rocks Road, go north on Point of Rocks Road for about 1 mile. The cemetery is on the west side of the road up on a hill.

This is an old African American cemetery. At one time this cemetery was afflilated with a church, but the church was torn down several years ago. The last burial took place in 1985.

The cemetery is mowed and somewhat taken care of. If someone knows the actual name of it, please contact me. I named it after the road it is on.

I visited the cemetery on Sep 06 2003. To the best of my knowledge, this cemetery transcription is complete.
