The folowing Inscription is on a marker that stands at the entrance of the cemetery:
"About one mile north of this site was located the High Cliff Zion Evangelical Church (now United Methodist Church). Church organized. February 28, 1872, consolidated July 9, 1919. Many of the early members of this church, of which this cemetery was affiliated, are buried here. This marker is dedicated to the heroic faith of our fore-fathers who loved their Lord."
