SAN DOMINGO -- The way Newell Quinton sees it, the old elementary school isn't a symbol of segregation. It's a reminder of the freedom that has endured since the first free black men settled here long before the Civil War. Quinton, 63, grew up in this rural village just a 20-minute drive from Salisbury. After retiring from the Veterans Administration, he headed home five years ago and built a house on land once owned by his great-grandparents. Now, he spends most of his time piecing together San Domingo's history and working on community projects such as restoring the Sharptown Colored School.
