Over the years, much of Jefferson County’s Black history has been lost, suppressed and ignored. Nevertheless, this tour is intended to uncover and recover Black history and to provide the visitor with brief descriptions of sites which have played major roles in the African-American community. The total tour has twenty-four sites. This online tour only covers six of those sites. Come to Charles Town  and visit all twenty-four in person.
