Graves of the 1700s - Historic Steele Creek Cemetery

We are back at the Steele Creek Cemetery in Charlotte, North Carolina, to visit the area where the earliest graves are located. I check out graves from the middle 1700s... many before the founding of the United States!

These early graves are incredible... lots of history of the early settlers of this country, some Revolutionary War veterans, sad inscriptions of families, and graves of very young children.

This is Part 2 of an ongoing series at Steele Creek... Part 1 covers the history of the church and cemetery, and a walk through of the mid 1800 burial site. Future videos will cover the current burial area, and amazing and interesting graves located throughout the cemetery.
