In a community known as Fiddleton, there was a group of people who shared a Baptist faith but had no local place to worship. On March 17, 1888, a small group met at Mr. John R. Berry's storehouse and organized a Missionary Baptist Church. Mr. John R. Berry and his wife, Betty, offered the church three acres of land near his storehouse.
From the original church minutes, on June 6, 1896, a committee was appointed to lay off a burial ground. The first interment in the church cemetery was in 1892 according to a monument date. The cemetery was plotted with the first row (A) along the west wood line and the last row (AA) along the Berry Road east side. Each row has 30 to 35 plots.
Based on a survey completed in June 2022, there are 12 graves marked by plain blocks. Church records do not have the identities of those 12 graves.
