    3. Fred, I don't know anything about the church but, Bull Frog is on 213 next to "Sarge's Market". You've probably seen the road sign there?

It appears to have been dedicated in 1852. When the property was turned into a home in the early 1900's, the few remaining tombstones were evidently buried and the cemetery made into a garden. Cecil Whig obits indicate that among those who had been buried there are Mrs. Eliza HUTTON (widow of Fergus Hutton), buried in May 1882 and Samuel WARD, buried in March of 1879 (his obit mentions that the church was near a place called "The Bull Frog"). Another former member was David M. TAYLOR, who switched to the Protestant Episcopal faith prior to his death in May of 1882. > > I would be interested to know if anyone has more information on the history of this church or its congregation.
