Trees found at the Avoca African-American Cemetery

Perimeter of Trees that Surround the Cemetery 

 
The cemetery is surrounded by a ring of trees, some of which may be over 100 years old. The oldest trees may have been standing when it was decided to allocate the area for a cemetery. Another possibility is that the trees were planted afterwards to create a natural boundary.
