Bethany Christian Church is 116 years old, has no running water, no heat, no electricity, no air conditioning. It has only one member (Eunice Dunn) and only holds one service a year (second Sunday of June).
This church and cemetery are located near Williamson, seven miles southwest of Griffin. Most of the membership have moved their membership to nearby Williamson Christian Church. Descendants of those buried in
the adjoining cemetery chip in to maintain the cemetery and church grounds. Perhaps someone will contribute the tombstone records of this very old cemetery to this site.

The following transcription by Sandra Ann (Horton) Brown
and submitted by Mary Jewell (Horton) Hall
Sandra left there and went to the Bethany Christian
Church on Bethany Rd, established in 1879. In the cemetery
there she found one date - 1877. She found a grave stone
with the same name and dates as the one at the house of Annie
Nell Hutchinson. Annie Nell Hutchinson 1/13/1892 --4/8/1907.
Another one - Nolie Glass Hutchinson
Born 5/29/1892
Married R. C. Hutchinson 2/24/1910
Died 1/1/1923
There were 2 graves with concrete slabs covering them
with writing that looked like it was done with the fingers
about 6" tall.
