Abstract:

Those buried at St. Philips Church in Old Salem are remembered with a 12-foot hunk of red granite on which are listed the 131 names or parts of names of those buried there. The cemetery had been forgotten until the 1990s when it was discovered by archeologists who excavated and identified the graves.
