The New Hope Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery is a cemetery on St. Marys Street in Lake Village, Arkansas. The cemetery is located adjacent to a modern church that is located on the site of churches that have served Lake Village's African American population since 1860.[2]
The historic portion of the cemetery, east and south of the church, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1] It is the only known site associated with the area's large African American population from the 19th century.[2]
