Yes, it is the one located by Duff Quarters, a few miles south of the Sawmeal Restaurant. As far as I know, it is not African American but the Pastor of the church is Reuben Compere and he lives in Brent, AL. if you want to call and check with him. There are several older graves located there that might be African American but most of the recent ones are not.

Thanks Melanie, I will call and speak with the pastor. Some are saying that there is an African American Cemetery right behind the church. Does anyone know the proximity of Bethel Cemetery and Bethel Baptist church. I know that might sound strange but not all church cemeteries are near the church.
