The records indicate that there were thirty-three (33) Colored (African-American) cemeteries without any interest in their relocation. For these, the US Government purchased a plot of land in the White Pond Community of Aiken County and moved the graves there. There were a total of approximately 1135 graves in the 33 cemeteries moved to this site.
Apparently there were no provisions for continuing care and the site was abandoned. It has become overgrown with trees and most of the graves are heavily damaged or completely destroyed.
The following list of relocated cemeteries is from the records produced by the Corps of Engineers.
