African American Cemetery sits on top of a hill overlooking Lake Arlington to the South and Handley to the North.
The Cemetery is cared for by The Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church 1901 Aminda Ave Fort Worth.
East Lancaster, Spur 303 and the Railroad run parallel to the Cemetery.
Because of it’s out of the way location, it is subject to vandalism.
It is said the Cemetery has over 600 graves, but only a hundred or so have markers.
A lot of these markers are just a rock in the ground.
Sometimes you will see a penny or a nickel on a Grave. That means that someone
who cares for you has visited your Grave.
