Old Bethel Cemetery

Choctaw County, AL

by Sarah Mozingo - April, 1999

This cemetery is located on the Gin Creek road which is approximately 3 miles north of Highway 84 on County Road 39.

There is a very large fenced in area. It is very obvious that once there were many graves here, but only a few scattered stones remain. There is evidence of many unmarked graves.
