The exact date of the Flint Hill Baptist Church Cemetery founding is unknown although it is generally thought to be established along with the original church in 1792. The first burial on record is from July 31, 1802. Some of the founding European settlers to Fort Mill are buried here. The cemetery was originally founded on the grounds of the Sugar Creek Baptist Church of Christ, which was later changed to the Flint Hill Baptist Church. The church owns the cemetery but is administered through a separate endowment fund. The cemetery has veteran burials from some ten (10) different wars and conflicts in our country's history, from the American Revolution to Operation Desert Storm. Burials are mostly limited to church membership. Many prominent figures from the earliest days of Fort Mill, SC are buried here, to include William Pettus (b.1768-d.1818), a South Carolina state representative, and the founding church minister Rev. John Rooker (b.1755-d.1840) with 48 years of ministerial service.
