Lee Kirkland Cemetery
Beaches Museum invites you to learn more about African American history at the beaches with a walking tour of the Lee Kirkland Cemetery given by local history detective Johnny Woodhouse. The tour will be on Sunday, February 12 at 1:00 p.m.
The Lee Kirkland Cemetery has been the burial grounds for the beach’s African American population for the last 100 years or more. With marked and unmarked graves it can be difficult to trace the lives of the people interred in the cemetery. Join Beaches Museum and Johnny Woodhouse in an exploration of the lost histories of the Lee Kirkland Cemetery.
This event is free to Museum members with a $5 suggested donation for non-members. Please pre-register HERE. Visit the Beaches Museum website www.beachesmuseum.org or call 904-241-5657 for further information.
