Located in the Springdale Community of Kingsport, near Sullivan Gardens.\u00a0 The entrance to the Hilltop Mission Church, Hilltop Mission Cemetery, and Pierce Chapel AME Cemetery is near 1821 Seaver Road. A sign at the road reads “Hilltop Mission Church.”<\/p>\n

Pierce Chapel AME Cemetery is the first site on the left. Continue down the road, and the entrance to Hilltop Mission Cemetery is on the right. The cemetery is accessible by a very steep dirt driveway. It is definitely not for a low-bottomed vehicle! Continuing past the cemetery entrance, the Hilltop Mission Church is at the end of the road.<\/p>\n
