There is a note in this book that the original book of members was lost 
and part of the above list was done by memory. Mrs. C.Chenault
gave a new book to the congregation in 1903.

This church was located on the banks of Boeuf River next to Mann
School about 12 miles north of Rayville in 1896. Sometime around
the early 1930's the building was moved on skids by mules to 
another spot near the road that had been put through. This 
church did not have service there after 1938 when the Mann Community
Church was built. This is not the same Bethel Baptist Church that 
is located north of Holly Ridge.
