Rock Hill Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery. The first church was a log building located here on Rock Hill Road. The church grew and a larger wooden structure was built, and this building was later destroyed by fire. Church services were held in a two-room house until another structure was built at the same site.

The church was moved to Possum Ridge which is now known as Caribou Road (#7 on this tour). In 1925 a large block building was completed.

All this land became the Rock Hill Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery.

The cemetery includes gravesites of many formerly enslaved people, most marked only with a field stone. The cemetery is currently being digitally archived as part of the 828 Digital Archives for Equity project, which will make it easier for Shiloh community members to find their loved ones.
