Midland Cemetery is the resting place of African Americans from the villages of Oberlin, Enhaut, Bressier in Swatara Township, Steelton, and surrounding areas, including leaders of Black community churches and civic organizations who came out of slavery to freedom. Those buried here include veterans of the Civil War, Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, and the Korean War. The histories of many untold stories have been preserved through the restoration and preservation efforts of the Friends of Midland and the cooperation of Swatara Township, Dauphin County Commissioners, and the Dauphin County Prison.
