It is located on the northwest corner of the junction Rock Mt. Ln. and Point Lookout Rd., three-tenths of a mile east of U.S. 340 (East Side Hwy). The rectangular foundation of the church remains in the enclosure. We were guided to the site by Mr. Herbert Casey, once a member of the church, now a member of Mt. Tabor Methodist Church in New Hope. He and other members of Mt. Tabor have undertaken the care and maintenance of this cemetery, which contains the following interments, plus many unmarked: Allen, Nathaniel b 22 Jun 1907 - d 23 Aug 1991 "Father" Allen, Maggie b 12 Mar 1909 - d 15 Aug 1977 "Mother" Allen,Garland Nathaniel b 19 Sep 1941 - d 11 Sep 1998 LCpl-US Marine Corps.
