Kimberly Morgan speaks during the unveiling of Edgerly Cemetery aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort Sept. 18. Morgan has been overseeing the restoration of the cemetery and discovered the grave site of Stephen Binyard. “As I searched for the history of this area, I knew one thing, Stephen Binyard and his wife, Jane Henry, were a priority,” said Morgan. After he was freed from slavery in 1863, Binyard joined the Union Army’s U.S. Colored Troops Division and was among the first African-American men to join the Army in S.C. Morgan is a historical researcher and genealogist.
