The take

The cemetery is the reason to come — Scots-Irish settlers of the Revolutionary generation rest here, around a congregation organized about 1760, the county's second oldest. The record leaves current congregation life unconfirmed, so come as you would to any historic churchyard: quietly, and on its terms.

This settles a question the guide's own take had left open: it describes the record as leaving 'current congregation life unconfirmed'. It is an active worshipping congregation, and the church states its Sunday time plainly on its homepage. Denomination is recorded as plain Presbyterian because the site does not state a PC(USA) affiliation and inferring one would be putting a label on a congregation it did not choose.

From the congregation's own site, read 2026-08-19. Times change — confirm before a first visit.
