Records of Mount Olive, St. Peters,
Union, Old Union, 12th & French Street cemeteries
Mount Olive
Cemetery is an historic African-American cemetery located near Wilmington, DE
on Lancaster Avenue. The cemetery entrance is marked with a Historic Marker -
from the Delaware State website. Because of the move from St. Peters to Mount
Olive in the early 1900s, the use of death records, census and newspaper
clippings will help identify not only the persons with existing tombstones, but
additional people buried here as well.
The
location(s) cited in burial / death records for this survey include 'St.
Peters', 'Front and Union', 'Mt. Olive', 'Ezion', 'Union Cemetery'. References
to 'Col. Cemetery'; where other family members are buried at Mount Olive or St.
Peters are included. Some persons identified by tombstones found in Mount Olive
are actually listed in the death records as 'internment at Mt. Zion'. The earliest burial records do not indicate a burial
location.. NOTE: Stones which were moved from St. Peters are sometimes in a WSW
orientation. Later stones are in an EW orientation, facing the dawn.
