Avondale Burial Place

Bibb County
April 02, 2015

Through the help of area residents, GDOT Cultural Resources identified the existence and location of an abandoned African American cemetery.  Specialists performed historical research in an attempt to confirm that a cemetery in fact existed and gained clues about the identities of the individuals buried within. The cemetery was named the Avondale Burial Place due to its proximity to the nearby community.
