      On Sun., Feb. 20 nearly 70 people turned out to hear Charity L. Derrrow’s presentation of her research into four gravestones in an isolated section of the Linville Creek Cemetery. Her study led to a look at two Afro-American families who settled in Broadway after the Civil War—the Allens on Central Ave. and the Maddens on Central and Rock St. A copy of her paper is on file at the Museum.
