The church originally was near Main Street in Pineville. The old church building may have been replaced with a newer facility, now part of Davis Upholstery in Pineville. The church members later merged with other Presbyterians and now worship in west Charlotte. This church cemetery has several unmarked graves, and some graves have only stones marking a burial. The cemetery is on the west side of Sam Meeks Rd.

Dr. Charles DeForest Lucas bought the property in 1935. Lucas came from Virginia and bought the property on Campbell Creek to build a gristmill to support his family. At this point in the creek, there is a natural falls, which had previously been the site of a sawmill, which was abandoned in the 1860s. This cemetery may have also been known as Buffalo.
