Drive to Highland Ridge Rd in West Bethlehem for 6.8 mi, Highland Brethren Church Cemetery is on the left. There is no sign for this cemetery which is downhill from the church facing the east. This was the cemetery for the South Pigeon Creek Dunkard Cemetery. The South Pigeon Creek Dunkard Church was the daughter church of the Ten Mile Church of the Brethren (once known as "The Fraternity of German Baptist"). The daughter church was built in 1866 for members in the "northern part of the congregation" near South Pigeon Creek, and Love Feasts and services rotated between the two churches. This data was collected by the DAR and found in the genealogy section of the Washington PA library. The data is from 1938 so the burial records may not be complete.
