Sometimes called the Red Hill Cemetery, this is the original site of Barnwell First Baptist Church, the oldest continual institution in Barnwell, established in 1802. Both the 1850 building and the 1926 building stood on this site, and earlier church buildings were located nearby. The cemetery is one of the oldest in Barnwell. Another old Baptist cemetery is located on the corner of Wall and Gilmore Streets across from Bethlehem Baptist Church, location of the 1825 Baptist Church building. Among the many notable people buried here is J. Lewis Shuck, the first Southern Baptist missionary to China.
