Jackie: this is out of the benton co. book I have: The Methodists first sent their missionaries into West Tennessee in 1821. The first methodist congregation organized in the county was called Chapel Hill, but about 1860 was renamed Cowell's Chapel. It has maintained the same location since it was first organized in 1824. The congregation currentlly meets in a pretty brick church in Camden. About the same time that Cowell's Chapel was organized, the Methodists on Beaverdam Creek also organized their church, always known as the Flatwoods Church. Hope this helps, Betsy
