The church was established in 1790.

The cemetery for this church is in two places. One is directly behind the church and can best be seen from the parking lot. The other is directly across the street and can be easily seen from Sardis Rd. There is another unmarked cemetery behind the visible cemetery on the east side of Sardis Rd. that may be a slave cemetery.
