Memorial, Sunset Memorial and Pinehurst Cemeteries were developed and managed by the Afro-American Life Insurance Company to provide burial options for blacks in segregated Jacksonville. With over 6,000 graves, these three cemeteries along with the adjacent Mount Olive Cemetery, New Mount Herman Cemetery and Greenwood Cemetery, were the major burial grounds for Jacksonville's African American community.

Located on the south side of Moncrief Road just west of Edgewood Avenue in Jacksonville, Florida. Across the street from Memorial Cemetery.

One of many Abandoned Cemeteries.
