The Avoca plantation was the property of Seth Sothel, Lord Proprietor and Governor of the North Carolina colony, 1678-1692. In the 19th century the plantation passed into the hands of the Cullen Capehart family. The Capeharts built the Scotch Hall manor in 1838. The Episcopal Church on the property was consecrated in 1880 and is known as "The Church of the Holy Innocents." Generations of Capeharts are interred in the cemetery.
In the 21st century the Capeharts sold the remaining farmland to a bioprocessing company.
