Old City Cemetery is a historic site in Tallahassee, Florida, the state capital. It was established in 1829 by the Territorial Legislative Council, and was acquired by the city in 1840. Burials for white people were segregated with separate areas and books for "colored" people.{{Cite web|url=https://www.talgov.com/|title=The City of Tallahassee|website=www.talgov.com}}
