Greenwood is the first — the 'commercial Black cemetery' that's the '74 founded, the 'segregation's proof' that's the need's cause. The 'Krueger's vision' is the built — the 'white founder' that's the oddity noted, the 'Foelsch century' that's the family kept. The '50,000' is the filled — the 'horse-drawn graves' that's the digging's way, the 'sending-off parties' that's the grief's sound.
The 'decline' is the came — the '1981 sold' that's the family ended, the 'overgrown' that's the politician's neglect. The 'Friends' is the saved — the 'cleanup crews' that's the community's act, the 'NRHP '04' that's the listing earned. Greenwood is the segregated — the 'separate even dead' that's the era's logic, the 'first of its kind' that's the dignity bought.
The file keeps Greenwood: the first commercial Black cemetery, the Foelsch century, the decline, and the rescue.
Greenwood Cemetery is the archive's Missouri file — where segregation built a landmark.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Greenwood Cemetery is the archive's Missouri file — the first commercial Black cemetery in St. Louis.
A cemetery keeps its founding — the file's suggestion being that Greenwood's hold is the necessary: the 'segregation' that's the market's cause, the '50,000 buried' that's the community served, and the 'Friends' rescue' that's the memory saved.
