History on
a Pinhead
Graves in the Prairie Grove cemetery date the settlement to
the late 1880s when it was an African-American farming community.
A local school was partially funded by a Rosenwald school grant but
was abandoned after desegregation. The four-room, wooden building
was still standing as late as the 1980s. |
