Free Hills (also known as Free Hill), Tennessee was a antebellum Black community. It was founded in 1816 by the newly freed men and women once enslaved by Virginia Hill and her wealthy planter family. Hill purchased the hilltop land and turned it over to them to create a community.
The Free Hills Rosenwald School was built in 1929 and served the community until 1949. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
Built in 1924, Fairview Brown served as the school for Black school children in Cave Springs, Georgia. After it was no longer used, the school fell into disrepair and what was left was the First Grade Classroom Building. The Georgia Trust put it on its 2011 Places in Peril List. It was listed with the National Register in 2017. Restoration was complete in 2019.
The Hiram Rosenwald School and Museum opened in 1930 as the Hiram Colored School. It was the only Rosenwald School built in Paulding County. It also was the only school for Black schoolchildren with a library.
