Christian Grove Baptist Church Cemetery

Barbour County, Alabama

T10 / R28 / Sec 33

 Christian Grove Baptist Church Cemetery is located on Five Mile Road, (Co. Rd 36), less than one mile north of SR 131.  Located directly across the road from the church, this extremely well maintained cemetery contains approximately 134 interments.  The first known interment was Kissiah James who died 1881.  She was the wife of Wiley James, who donated the land for the church and cemetery.  The church was established 1876.  Several sources were drawn on to compile this listing including two previous surveys, in additon to another physical survey performed by Richard Price on 3 July 2000, in order to provide as complete of an inventory as possible.
