Subsequently a brick building took its place. Regular meetings were continued there until the completion of the Baptist Church edifice in Monongahela City. On the 8th of September, 1810, Abraham Frye and wife granted to Stacy Storer and John Grant, trustees, and their successors, for the use of the "Regular Baptist Society" one acre of land "Whereon the Baptist Meeting-house is built, situated in the Horseshoe Bottom and enclosed by land of grantor." This data was provided by Mrs. Melvin J. Naser and found in the genealogy section of the Citizen’s Library, Washington, PA library. The data is from 1957 so the burial records are believed to be complete. There are a number of people known to be buried in this cemetery but no tombstones for them could be found.
