A small cemetery is in a northwest corner on the property of the Massaponax Baptist Church in Spotsylvania County, Virginia. The cemetery is enclosed within an iron fence with a brick pillar at each corner. There are six graves ranging from 1908 to 1966.

Even though the cemetery is on church grounds, it does not appear to be directly connected to the church. On the NRHP registration form (pg. 5) for Massaponax Church, the cemetery is listed as noncontributing, although the church maintains it and added the fence in 1999¹.
