The Most Comprehensive History of the Delta Blues of all Time


 The Mt. Zion Memorial Fund is developing its most ambitious project to date.  We aim at nothing short of a complete transformation of our organization's financial standing and the mindset of anyone who takes the time to watch our documentary on Chas. (formerly Charley) Patton and the Delta Blues.

In addition to our prior functions as a research and memorialization firm, we are now starting an audio and video production arm, specifically for the production of a documentary film about Patton and his family. The film begins with the domestic slave trade and the introduction of his real grandfather and grandmother and it goes all the way up to the DNA tests that are supposed to tell us of his Native American heritage.



We need your help! 

If you know of any grant programs or any artists who might excel at visually creating and/or animating the characters in the film, 
please contact us at
