Ms Brock released a highly critical report in January about the decision, in which she detailed how the “last relatively intact relic that evidences the communal life of a wholly unique population” was lost due to a lack of research.ĭr Harris, she wrote, developed the “mistaken” view “in casual conversations - unclear with whom” that cement tops put on the original limestone tombs in 1991 or 1992 constituted the erection of “false graves”.
Marsden removed the tombstones in 2012 based mainly, according to the Ombudsman, on recommendations from overseas archaeologist John Triggs, who adopted Dr Harris's view that the tombs were “new” and “false”. It became a Historic Preservation Area in 2008 after the Department of Planning consulted with Dr Harris, the Bermuda National Trust and the Department of Conservation Services on its importance. The cemetery, which sits beneath the golf course at Tucker's Point, eventually fell into disrepair, but was rededicated in 1996 by Marsden Church and renamed the Marsden Methodist Memorial Cemetery. The community was forced to move to make way for a hotel in 1920, with some of those evicted resettling at Devil's Hole and relocating Marsden Church there. The graves at Marsden Methodist Memorial Cemetery are the final resting place of an unknown number of mostly black residents who lived at Tucker's Town from the early 19th century, around the time of Emancipation, onwards. “They were saying that the graves weren't above ground at all.

The society is calling on him to review the photos and answer questions about why he recommended to cemetery custodian Marsden First United Methodist Church and Rosewood Tucker's Point that they raze the tombstones.Īnd it wants Marsden pastor Joseph Whalen, church trustees and Tucker's Point management to publicly address the desecration of the headstones, in light of the new evidence. Society members, along with a historical researcher, say Dr Harris failed to give Ombudsman Arlene Brock a proper explanation as to how he reached his conclusion when she investigated the October 2012 destruction of the tombstones. Tucker's Town Historical Society has uncovered photographs from the late 1980s which it says disprove Edward Harris's theory that the headstones were “false” structures, put in place in the early 1990s.
