Black History Month observance at slaves unmarked graves

By Effingham Now A wreath will be laid at 2 p.m. Saturday at the old African-American cemetery near Ebenezer Lutheran Church in Effingham County. The public is invited to attend. The ceremony will not include the usual readings or music because of the coronavirus. Masks and social distancing will be required, according to organizer Leroy Lloyd. The ceremony is in recognition of Black History Month. The cemetery is at 2887 Ebenezer Road, outside the Jerusalem Lutheran Cemetery and near the Ebenezer Lutheran Church and the Ebenezer Retreat Center. It may be the burial site of 100 freed African-American slaves who died in 1865 as they crossed the swollen Ebenezer Creek, following Union soldiers.
