According to "Carroll County, A Goodly Heritage" published in 1968, the Dutchtown Church of the Brethren is located two miles west of Milledgeville. The congregation dates to the 1850s, founded by Christian Long and Henry Myers, both from Somerset County, Pennsylvania. The church was built on land owned by Henry Myers, very near to Otter Creek. Others who moved to the area from Somerset County joined the church. The church was extensively remodeled in 1955. This is a quick overview; the book provides much more detail, including names of early church members.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) feature ID for the cemetery is 1785411 (Dutchtown Brethern Cemetery / Dutchtown Brethren Cemetery / Milledgeville Cemetery).
