The church owned another cemetery on Wendover, near the intersection with Marvin Road. According to an article on page 20B of The Charlotte Observer on 9/28/1977, there were several stones on the property. One was marked Anne Kinto, 1/30/1888. A member of the D.A.R. at the time of the article believed this to be a slave cemetery. The Observer also wrote about the cemetery on 1/16/1978, p.9B. A more recent article in The Charlotte Post dated 8/11/2004 says the property belonged to the Lloyd Presbyterian Church and has at least 86 graves.

The cemetery is near the intersection of Colony Road and Roxborough. When you are on Roxborough and turn left on Colony, the cemetery is on the right. It is in a heavily wooded area, one tree in particular being extremely large. Periwinkle is the predominant ground cover over the sunken graves.
