The Resurrection of Granite

By Emanuel A Hyde III

This book captures the historical journey of a once vibrant African American community, tracing its origins from slavery to the present day. The former Granite community has evolved into Stratford Hills, with Granite Road now known as Forest Hill Avenue, bustling with establishments while few remnants of its past remain, preserving its memory in the hearts of descendant families. This book dives deep into Granite's vibrant history, shining a light on families like the Mickens, Green, Howlett, Lomax, Carrington, Woolridge, Royal, Taylor, Fountain, Royal, Davis, Rollins, Coleman, Ford, Ross, Young, Hammock, Wright, Wilson, Jackson, Broadnax, Cox, Johnson, Fountain, Drumgole, White, Gregory, and many others.
