The Union Valley Methodist Protestant Cemetery was part of the Methodist Protestant Church, also located at this site at one time.

The church was started about 1790. It was rebuilt nearby in 1858 and destroyed in a fire in 1925. The church was never rebuilt. The last pastor to serve the church was Rev. George D. Jones. Very few grave markers remain today to be seen in this cemetery.

(Additional Information: The Methodist Protestant church traces its origin back to the Church of England. The American church separated from the Church of England and became the Methodist Episcopal church. Many years later a dispute arose concerning lay representation in church government. The Methodist Protestant Church was organized during this challenge in 1828. Since this particular church was destroyed in 1925 it was not part of the 1930's Methodist reunification.)
