The Arlington Historical Society and the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington invite you to the unveiling of “Stumbling Stones.” These bronze markers commemorate the lives of the enslaved people who helped build our county and our country and are placed in the sidewalk at the last known site of their enslavement. Memorializing the Enslaved in Arlington’s research has revealed over 2,000 enslaved people and identified 1,050 by name. Please join us for a Dedication Ceremony honoring nine individuals whose names are unknown, enslaved in the Woodmont neighborhood from 1850-1861. We will be honoring them at the Hendry House on the grounds of Fort C.F. Smith, 2411 24th Street, North
