Penton House Poitevant; homeowner Rouchon House; Site of first flag-raising ceremony following NASA acquisition. Reinterment Following NASA's acquisition in 1961-1962, a total of 483 existing graves were reinterred to make way for construction. Of these, 306 were relocated from the Baptist Church (white) Cemetery; 177 from the Colored Cemetery. A total of 224 graves were unmarked. A record of the names and reinterment is maintained by the Hancock County Historical Society. Wisteria vine A 1963 article in the Picayune Item newspaper reported NASA's effort to protect a (at the time) "75-year-old Wistaria (sic) Vine" located near the Rouchon House. Protection efforts included the erection of a fence and plaque marking the significance of the vine, which the article reports "some old timers believe may be the largest in the world" and described as "a foot thick and it has spread all over the ground and an adjacent cedar tree sixty of seventy feet tall."
