Halfway Cemetery

Neither Gone Nor Forgotten

Reclaiming and Restoring a Historic African American Cemetery Faculty Undergraduate Student

After being razed, Halfway Cemetery was neglected for decades. Today, Hood faculty, students and community volunteers are tackling identification and cleanup of this lost African American burial ground near Hagerstown, Maryland. We talked with David Hixson, Ph.D., visiting assistant professor of art and archaeology, and James Locke ’23, president of Hood’s student archaeology club about their efforts.
