Join the City's Commission on African American History on Thursday, March 26, as we unveil a North Carolina State Highway Historical Marker honoring Zachariah Jacobs, a local Patriot and one of more than 460 men of color from North Carolina who served during the American Revolution.

Jacobs fought in multiple pivotal battles of the Revolution and was wounded in 1781. With this marker, his service will soon be permanently recognized right here in Wilmington.
