One of the women I work with is from Owen County, and she told me about a little cemetery there with African American burials. And when I say little, I mean tiny. There are maybe 10-12 headstones, some of which belong to Civil War soldiers. The abbreviation U. S. C. I. stands for United States Colored Infantry; U. S. C. T. stands for United States Colored Troops.
