Old Scots Graveyard is a privately run cemetery owned and maintained by the Board of Directors of the Old Tennent Church.

Cemetery History

Old Scots Graveyard was the burying ground of the first Presbyterian church (meeting house) in North America, erected in 1692. Burials on this location began soon after.

In 1731, the congregation built a larger church building about 5 miles away in present-day Manalapan, and a new cemetery was formed there (see Old Tennent Cemetery).

The most recent burial was that of Kevin Defrietas in 2011.
