Forest Hill Methodist Church Cemetery Summers Co. WV Submitted by Rebecca Cottle rkcottle@earthlink.net The property upon which the cemetery is located was deeded to the trustees of the Methodist Church in 1835. The earliest known burial in the cemetery was that of Janie Campbell (wife of Isaac Campbell) in 1842. There are numerous unmarked graves in the cemetery. The cemetery is still in use and maintained. It is l ocated just behind the Forest Hill Methodist Church on Route 12 in Forest Hill, Summers County, WV. The site of the Forest Hill Methodist Church is an historic landmark. The log church building which proceeded the current frame building was used by both Union and Confederate officers during the Civil War. The current frame church building has been there since about 1916 or 1917. GRAVE# FIRST MIDDLE LAST BIRTHDATE DEATHDATE AGE RELATION MILITARY MAR_DATE COMMENTS 322 Bessie A.
