Flat Rock AME Church Cemetery Old
Eno Township, Orange County, North Carolina, USA
Additional information: This is an African-American descent cemetery. In 1976, this cemetery was covered by a dense mat of periwinkle in the midst of woodland, and a single tree box of some size stood near the center of the area and at the head of the only marked grave, that of Joe Holmond, d. Nov 20, 1903. In the same row there were at least 9 mounds, marked by rough headstones and footstones, and there were two other similar rows and perhaps parts of others. Although it is difficult to be exact, one might conservatively estimate that there were perhaps 20 graves in the cemetery. Two large boulders appear to mark the lower corners near the creek. Distinctive rock outcroppings mark the area, hence, possibly, the name "Flat Rock."
