Did you try the DE Hist Soc? They have some records. I visited Mt Salem years ago on a cold rainy day. I climbed up to the church and found the minister. But he said it wasn't attached to his church and he had no records. It was a most miserable day for me. I know of ancestors buried there but was unable to find their stones that day.
