Lost Stories Memorial

The Lost Stories Memorial aims to preserve the memory of local heroes and significant historical sites. These sites, though not always widely recognized, form the core of our nation’s history and have left indelible marks on our collective consciousness.

Ancestral Memorial Projects

In our quest to ensure that these crucial events do not fade into oblivion, Black Pearls of Genealogy is dedicated to placing memorials at identified historical locations throughout the United States. These memorials will serve as everlasting reminders of the events, the people, and the sacrifices made. They will stand as testaments to our shared history, ensuring that future generations are educated, informed, and inspired.

Understanding the importance of connection to one’s roots, we provide an extensive range of tools and resources to facilitate research into ancestral histories and support meaningful memorial projects. Whether you’re tracing your family lineage, commemorating a loved one, or exploring the stories of unsung heroes within the BIPOC community, we offer a platform where the past meets the present, and every contribution is valued and honored.
