Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church in St. George's Hundred stood on the road from Odessa to St. George's near Pearce's Run. In the summer of 1810, Thomas Smith and Lawrence McComer began preaching in the woods to large crowds. When cold weather made outdoor meetings impossible, people contributed $800.00 to build Asbury, and it was finished before frost. After the St. George's and Port Penn Societies were organized, Asbury's congregation merged with them and the church building was abandoned. People of different races worshiped there and were buried in this cemetery.
