Evergreen Interment Ledger, 1926-1962

Historical Context

The second volume of three Evergreen Interment Ledgers, this ledger covers burials from 1926 to 1962. The conservation and digitization of the Evergreen Interment Ledger, 1926-1962 (Volume Two) was generously supported by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Later burials may be found in Volume Three, Evergreen Interment Ledger, 1963-1969 or in the Evergreen Interment Cards. A portion of this ledger overlaps with the interment cards.

Evergreen Cemetery is a historic African-American cemetery located in the East End neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia. Founded in 1891 as an African-American equivalent to Hollywood Cemetery, many notable African Americans are interred at Evergreen, including Maggie L. Walker, John Mitchell, Jr., and A.D. Price.
