Grave discovered by homebuilder
A home builder working near a community founded by freed slaves recently discovered a grave, halting the project while officials determine if the area is a burial site.

Lennar Homes had been working on the housing project near Bell Helicopter Textron's south plant and Mosier Valley, a community founded by former slaves after the Civil War. An archaeologist working with the builder unearthed the grave this month.


Short story, but the locals think there will be more graves found.
