The plaque says, "Saint John's Parish (Gunpowder) Established 1692-The old church here standing was built by Edward Day at his own expense and consecrated in 1817 to replace Saint John’s at Joppa Town which, built in 1725, lay in ruins." There are about 1000 graves here. One interesting grave is the tomb of the Burton Groves family.
