Bethlehem Christian Church Cemetery, Page 4 Home Page


Bethlehem Christian Church is located a couple of miles east of Madisonville where state highway 70 splits from highways 81 and 85. The cemetery is well tended as will be seen from the tombstone and cemetery photos presented here.

This file contains over 600 tombstone photo plus another 100+ names that appeared in the survey published by the Hopkins County Genealogical Society in 1970 that I did not locate stones for. Naturally there were some of the older stones that could no longer be read, and some that had been knocked over and were partially covered. Others were undoubtedly completely covered and not seen by me at all and still others that were unmarked. I'm sorry that I was unable to dig and probe to try to locate the buried stones and unmarked graves. I took these photos over a 2 month period in the spring of 2004.
