Review:
Clemson’s Old Stone Church was built in 1802 to replace the original wooden structure after it was destroyed by fire. The Presbyterian church was the place of worship for the frontier’s wealthy citizens, many of whom are buried in the cemetery and now have South Carolina counties named in their honor. The oldest graves in the cemetery date back to 1795, pre-dating the church. By the mid 1820’s, most of the congregation had moved to nearby Pendleton. Nevertheless, the church and cemetery were continually cared for by the Pendleton Presbyterian Church Commission. Today, the church is still in use for weddings and events, and burial plots may still be purchased.
