Small family cemetery on Belmont Road west of Gettysburg, off the Chambersburg Pike (US 30).


Black's Graveyard is one of the oldest cemeteries in Adams County. This area was the site of the Upper Marsh Creek Presbyterian Church (its actual name was 'Zion Presbyterian Church') as opposed to the Lower Marsh Creek Presbyterian Church. Nothing exists there now but the Zion Presbyterian Church Graveyard which is now sadly called the 'Black Graveyard'. The congregation moved to downtown Gettysburg in 1842 and became known as the Presbyterian Church of Gettysburg.
