This cemetery is owned by the City of Charlotte and was originally designated for African-Americans. In a 1893 report from the Good Samaritan Hospital, some of the patients who died that year were buried in Pinewood in the Hospital lot at the expense of the hospital. The names of these in question as of 11/2004 are included and are provided by Historic Charlotte. Only a few burial records have been listed in this database. For all burial information, please call the number for the city of Charlotte cemeteries.
