His tombstone is a box tomb; marble slab; brick sides; bad condition.
I believe his full name is Oliver Hazard Perry Cunningham. I find him on the 1850 US Federal Census for Hamburg, SC. It looks like he had a wife named Mary, son Edwin, and daughter Mary S. He also had two brothers named George and Robert. There are other Cunningham's buried in this cemetery. They are related by marriage. William Hill's second wife's sister, Caroline Gray married O Perry Cunningham's brother George.

Inscription
Erected To The Memory of
O.H.P. Cunningham,
Formerly a Merchant of Hamburg.
Born April 18, 1816.
Died November 16, 1854.
A tender Husband, Father dear,
A faithful friend lied buried here;
Free from malice, void of pride,
So he lived-and so he died.
