Abstract:

First established as the Wilson Hospital and Tubercular Home, Mercy Hospital in the East Wilson National Register District was one of the earliest hospitals for African Americans in North Carolina and one of the few facilities in the eastern part of the state. The Mercy Hospital Association now plans to make the building into a multi-purpose reuse facility.
