Harmony Methodist Church
Millsboro, DE
Harmony Church is located on Rt. 24 in Millsboro DE. The cemetery, however, is located several miles away at the intersection of Hollyville Road (Road 303) and Harmony Road (Road 306). Prior to 1881, most of the Indian River people were members of this congregation. In 1881 a number of the families broke away to create the Indian Mission Church but many members of the community remained attached to Harmony.

Walking through this cemetery you will see many of the same family names that you find at Indian Mission and, indeed, many of the same names that you will find further north in Kent County. Unfortunately, many of the grave markers are quite old and are becoming impossible to read. Some of the transcriptions made 10 years ago are now lost.

Most of these entries were made between 1985 - 1997. A more recent visit was made to update some of the listings but a thorough update still needs to be done.

The dates have been standardized in format. Entries in quotes are inscriptions copied from the markers. Other entries are comments. The listing is not in strict alphabetical order because I have tried to group together individuals appearing in the same plot.
