The history of the cemetery dates back to 1890 when Laura and William Brawner donated 16 acres of land for the establishment of a cemetery for black slaves. It was named Evergreen. During this time, blacks and whites were not allowed to be buried together. The first pioneer trustees of the cemetery were George W. Cook, L.W. Fountain, S.E. Jones, WE. Merritt, William M. Jones, John W. Ford, K.G. Gray and John Daniel Merritt.
