Mill Creek Cemetery adjoins the historic Mill Creek Primitive Baptist Church near Patterson, a congregation long described locally as very old. The church body originally gathered along Satilla Creek at the site now known as Aspinwall (formerly Old Mill Creek) Cemetery before relocating; its early cedar meeting house was moved to the present spot and rebuilt more than once over the decades. The graves here belong to the pioneering Wiregrass families tied to that congregation.
