Liberty Grove Baptist Church Cemetery
This African-American church cemetery is located approx. 75 yd. north of Evans Creek Rd. (Route 623) and approx. 0.5 mi. east of Tanner Town Rd. (Route 657). At least 15 other graves are here, as evidenced by fieldstones and depressions, and possibly many more. A more than 70-year-old neighbor stated in 2008 that she could remember Liberty Grove Baptist Church once stood beside the cemetery. No evidence of a structure remains.

It is believed his last name is Jones, as he is buried among others with the name Jones. The inscription looks as though the inscriber simply ran out of space.
