Sorry I can't help you with the location of the Liberty Baptist Church Cemetery, Sandra, but I'm wondering if your Talbot County source listed any given names for the early members of this church. I would really like to know what member or members of the HELMS family belonged to Liberty Baptist. (My second great grand aunt Sarah Frances BOSWELL of Talbot County married a William A. HELMS. They were Primitive Baptists, but they're buried in the Flint River Baptist Church Cemetery in Upson County,) GA.)
