This cemetery is located by Stephens Creek Road at the location of the Brown's Chapel building and a short distance from the later Moore's Chapel Cemetery. A photo of the remains of Brown's Chapel building is attached. This building was a notable structure in its day.
The last known burial was in the 1930s. The cemetery area is at least 1 acre and appears to be full. It is down the hill from area known by blacks in the late 1800s as Negro Hill where many slave families lived after they were freed. Most burials are marked by field stones. The cemetery is no longer maintained but is generally open.
