This is an active church with a history. Its cemetery is small and the congregation would like for it to stay that way. A new interstate is going up in front of the church and subdivision has gone up behind it. The church was founded in 1871 but some of the dates in the cemetery predate that. This cemetery is well kept by the church. There was 1 unmarked stone. I had permission from the minister to walk the cemetery and provided him with this listing.
