Cedar Creek Cemetery is a private family cemetery and is located along County Road 124, next to Cedar Creek Church in Sanderson, Florida. It is one of the oldest cemeteries in Baker County with many Florida pioneer families buried there. According to local historian Gene Barber, "Sanderson started as an entity about 3 1/2 miles north of its present location and was on the old plank
Jacksonville-Tallahassee road. Its name was Cedar Creek and a congestion of residents was known to be there prior to 1840, a result of settlers keeping close to a fortified site near the present Cedar Creek Cemetery. About 1835 John and Mary Harvey moved to old Columbia county(Baker), Florida and settled on Cedar Creek. With him were John Jr. and Isaac, both of whom were undoubtedly sons. Also among the immigrants to the Florida territory was a known daughter Sarah who was the mother of John Daniel Williams. The elder Harveys dropped from public records about 1845, possible victims of the Second Seminole War. Some of the older Harveys think they might have been buried in present day Cedar Creek Cemetery.The Harvey settlement was on the bank of Cedar Creek on an elevation where a little branch merged with the creek. As were all the early homes, it was fortified with a tall stockade fence of sharpened pine trunks buried on end around the cabin. Besides the legends from area residents, there are a few known brief mentions of this 'fort' in military writings. Cedar Creek continued as a lively spot until the disastrous Malaria epidemic of 1888, and it still possessed a few residents until into the first years of the 20th century. Most of its leading citizens such as Pons, Oglesbys, Chalkers, and Herndons had already moved into Sanderson by the early 1870's and the other old-line families, Harveys, Davises, Johnsons, Yelvingtons either went to Glen or Sanderson. In other words, Cedar Creek just moved away, and most of it went into creating Sanderson."
Gene also noted," The New River (Baker) County delegate to the Florida Secession Convention in 1860 was a dentist of modest means and a Primitive, Baptist preacher of dubious orthodoxy. Although he pastored and supplied in most area churches of that faith somewhat to their satisfaction, Dr. Isaac C. Koon drew their ire when he began to spread a 'no-Hell' doctrine. Dr. Koon founded the "No Hell" Baptist Church at what we now know as Cedar Creek Cemetery after his return from fighting with the Confederacy during the War Between the States. He said that after four years of war, he had seen hell and he did not believe God would, be responsible for such a place and that mankind created its own hell on earth. The other Baptists referred to his followers as 'Coonitcs' and called their meeting house 'the No-Hell Baptist Church.' The old wood frame No Hell Baptist church sat in the middle of Cedar Creek Cemetery until the early 1960's when it was torn down. The salvaged pieces of wood from the church were used to build the home of Charlie and Gussie(Dorman) Harvey and it still stands to this day down Fred Harvey Road in Sanderson.
