St. Mary Anne's Episcopal Church Cemetery (where many Hollingsworth graves were re-located to, including Henry Hollingsworth (many of the headstones were barely legible)). This is located on Howard St, which is south of and runs parallels Main St. The graves are located in the center of the cemetery.
