Local historian Mary Belcher provides a detailed history of the African American and Quaker cemeteries located in Adams Morgan.
Mary Belcher is an artist, writer, and longtime resident of the Adams Morgan neighborhood, where she has worked with anthropologists and community activists since 2005 to preserve the African American and Quaker cemeteries at Walter Pierce Park.
Her paintings, which feature DC cityscapes and neighborhood maps, delightfully encapsulate the community.
