This cemetery was once a slave cemetery for historic Rock Castle. The cemetery is located on the lakeshore at Winward Point. State surveyors have confirmed that at least 20 graves are located in the burial ground. Many believe that part of the cemetery may have been lost when Old Hickory Lake was created. In 1990, members of the Hendersonville Baha'i community & volunteers from Rockland Road Missionary Baptist Church & Mount Olivet Baptist Church restored and renovated the burial grounds.
