The grave sites start behind the new church and meander off into an unmaintained area in the woods. A marker behind the church states:

In memory of 290 Native American and white settlers buried between 1850 and the early 1900’s on the site of the former Grove Hill Mission Church. Final resting places remembered by unmarked stones.

May they rest in peace.
Earliest Burial: 08/01/1838
