It was recently revealed that Ellen Garrison Clark was laid to rest in Altadena’s Mountain View Mortuary and Cemetery more than a century ago in an unmarked grave. An anti-slavery activist and educator, she was known for having tested the Civil Rights Act of 1866. The Altadena Historical Society honored Clark, raising $8,000 to purchase a headstone and recognizing her important legacy.
