Mount Peace Cemetery dates from the 19th century. Here lie the remains of African-Americans, many of them former slaves and their descendants. Lawnside became home to those who escaped slavery along the underground railroad during the Civil War . It is a proud, thriving community today, and burials still take place at Mt. Peace.
The cemetery is well-kept along the main road, and it appears to be a small, contained area which backs up to dense woods. Upon closer examination, however, it was discovered that many unkempt graves are scattered throughout the entire wooded area, until the grounds give way to a major highway.
We are rarely disappointed when we visit Mount Peace. It is usually very active for spirit activity.

We ventured out to Mt. Peace Cemetery with some of our trainees. We have been to this cemetery numerous times and just love it here. It's also pretty spooky, as far as cemeteries go, and we wanted to see if our trainees were tough enough to wander around the woods with us in the wee hours of the morning. We are happy to report that they all made it out (walking, not running).
