Originally there was a Meeting House in the Mt. Hermon area used for both worship and school. An 1834 deed states that it adjoins the old Mt. Hermon tract, which signifies that the church predates that date. In February 1834, the annual Methodist Protestant Conference met at Mt. Hermon. The church in recent times became a United Methodist Church. The cemetery is taken care of by the Mt. Hermon Memorial Association.

The following comes from several articles written by Vance Garrett.
Hermon Husbands came from Pennsylvania around 1751 and settled in the Cane Creek area. He built the "Hermon Road" from Cane Creek to Hillsborough. It isn't known if the Church and area are named for this or the biblical Mt. Hermon. The first meetings date to 1753 and were organized by the Presbyterians. The earliest tombstone dates to 1790 so this site was used for burial at least by that date. In 1829 the church became a Methodist Protestant Church.
