The cemetery at St. John's United Church of Christ dates back to 1863 when the original church was moved to its present location at Neeb Road.

In 1938, the congregation purchased additional land for the cemetery. Other parcels purchased over time include the largest purchase of eight acres from Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Schmidt in 1958.
