This cemetery is directly adjacent to First Presbyterian Church located at the corner of Jefferson Street and 2nd Street in Delaware City, Delaware. About 50% of the cemetery is surrounded by a wrought iron fence with at least three entrances, two for individual people and a third wide enough for a vehicle. The entrances to the fence are not locked, but they do latch shut. A significant number of the monuments are near illegible from age or damaged, but the grounds are maintained and neither overgrown nor untidy.

The beginning date of c. 1846 is based on signage indicating that the parish was established in that year. There is no signage which indicates when the cemetery was put into use.
