The following is a complete listing of the Bethyl Cemetery in Jackson
Parish, LA. The cemetery is getting in pretty bad shape and several markers
are broken or have fallen over. This cemetery is located about three or four
miles SW of Eros just north of Hwy. 34 on Bethyl Road. If you know where to
look you can see the fence from the Hwy.

The first several graves are from inside a fenced in area inside the main
cemetery. The fenced area is about 75' by 30' and there is still a lot of
empty space inside the fence. There may be some old unmarked graves inside
as it is in the very center of the main cemetery and there are no very old
markers. The following is on one large marker:
