2013 Calendar

and Treasures of Historic Trees

Wake foresT

Trees are

The trees and buildings featured in this calendar are among the treasures of

Wake forest. stately and elegant, with vast historical significance, it’s easy

to see why they’ve been maintained and loved for more than a century.

There’s buried treasure in Wake forest too.

The ailey Young House, built in 1875, was hidden for years behind trees and overgrown

brush, long abandoned as a house and home. But if those walls could talk, a story of

Wake forest’s black community would be told.

It was the childhood home of allen Young, a community leader and the founder and principal

of the Wake forest Normal and Industrial school. Through his leadership thousands of black

children were educated over the course of 50 years. all trace of the school’s buildings are long

gone, along with the neighboring homes, leaving this “freedom house” as the lone survivor of

the post-Civil War black community in Wake forest.

Damaged by fire and neglect, the ailey Young House badly needs repairs and restoration.

Proceeds from the sales of this calendar go directly into the fund established by the

Wake forest Historic Preservation Commission for this purpose.
