Miraflores Burial Ground Study

A ceremony was held Tuesday to commemorate the placing of a new memorial marker to honor the unmarked burial ground at Miraflores Park in Pensacola.

In search of funds to preserve and commemorate the Miraflores Burial Ground, the city of Pensacola recently submitted application for a grant through the Florida Division of Historical Resources Abandoned African American Cemeteries Grants program. During the review process, discussion of ideas for how to honor the site will continue.
