Old School Baptist Church Cemetery
 
The cemetery is located on West Broad Street in Hopewell, Mercer County, New Jersey and is adjacent to the brick Old School Baptist meeting house.
 
 

The tombstone transcriptions on this page were personally transcribed by Phyllis Matthews Ziller during visits to the Old School Baptist Church Cemetery in July 2002 and June 2004. They are presented in alphabetical order by husband's surname. A wife's tombstone bearing her maiden name is listed with her husband's tombstone. Children buried with their parents are also listed alphabetically with their father in order to preserve the family groupings.

This list does not represent all tombstones in this cemetery. I do not live near this cemetery and, therefore, cannot provide information about tombstones that are not represented in this list.
