    1. Re: Horse Creek Church - Bettis Methodist Church
    2. Hi Cassandra, I think you must mean the Bethel Methodist Church which was located near Choctaw Corner. According to an article in the Thomasville Times from Oct 22, 1992 this church was torn down in 1967. The church was organized in the mid-1800's. The cemetery there still exists and a memorial marker is located near the Clarke/Marengo Co. line, just off Highway 43 between Thomasville and Dixons Mills, with 40 names of families who attended Bethel Methodist Church. According to the newspaper, the front side of the marker reads in part, "On this site once stood a small white church. In time of joy and sorrow, the people of this community came to Bethel, the house of God, giving praises and seeking guidance." Hope this helps. Jackie Feldman Sammamish, WA
