It was called Salt Spring Church. For a number of years they worshiped in a schoolhouse east of Maineville, and not far from the Maineville Graveyard. About 1830, they built the present brick building." "Maineville, Ohio History; 100 Years as an Incorporated Town" by Robert Brenner page 21 (The Maineville Baptist Church) "For a number of years they worshipped in a log house east of Maineville under the leadership of Elder Moses Dudley their first paster. The Baptist Cemetery was laid out on the east side of the log meeting house from a drawing made by Elder Moses Dudley. The first burial was Elijah Tufts, December 19, 1811. After the old log meeting house was torn down the burial ground was enlarged by the "New Addition to the Baptist cemetery". The addition was west of the original cemetery, and joined the original burial ground just beyond the site of the old log meeting house." [the book contains images of the drawings of the cemetery done by Moses Dudley ]
