Old Concord Cemetery, also recorded as the Old Concord Presbyterian Church Cemetery, is a small pioneer-era graveyard tucked off Highway 53 in the Sonoraville area. Early settler William Tow is said to rest here in an unmarked grave, and in 2012 his descendants placed a marker identifying the site after it was restored as an Eagle Scout project. With only a few dozen recorded burials, it is one of the district's older and more secluded churchyards.
