Washington Township holds a very unusual record. It contains New Jersey’s smallest registered graveyard.
The graveyard, containing only six headstones, used to be by Bunker Hill Presbyterian Church. The historic church is now part of Old Stone Village. The congregation moved to a newer building on Greentree Road, though they still hold services in the old church once a year.
The graveyard now stands where the old church originally stood, at the intersection of Hurffville Crosskeys Road and Greentree Road. The graves of the former Washington Township farmers stand by some tomato plants and a house.
