Charlotte Harbor Cemetery, located on the corner of Church and Harper in Charlotte Harbor Town, is the oldest cemetery in Charlotte County. It was founded in 1879 when the entire area was all Manatee County and Charlotte Harbor Town was called Hickory Bluff.
In 1908, Matthew and Mary Giddens deeded the Cemetery to the Trinity United Methodist Church.
Charlotte Harbor Cemetery has over 600 residents at final rest. The longest occupants are Joel Knight, one of the area's prominent developers, and Louisa Curry.
