St. Paul's Church began life as Old Forest Church in 1773 and although the new church, named St. Paul's, looks more modern, the graveyard contains graves from the late 18th century. Included among the graves are two Revolutionary War soldiers as well as graves of many local people bearing names that are familiar because the roads around this area are named after them. The church is located on Geigertown Road and there are many Geigers buried here. Kratz Road is about a quarter mile down the road and there are Kratzes buried in the cemetery.
