Yesterday’s post mentioned several old cemeteries in Shenandoah County. Since I was in Strasburg today, I went by the Mount Zion Methodist Church to take a picture of the old African-American cemetery.
Interestingly, the church building dates back to 1869 but it was not on this site. According to Shenandoah Stories, the original building was dismantled and moved to the present site, where it has been improved over the years.
Interesting history and real nice photos.
