James Chapel Cemetery

Welcome to the James Chapel United Methodist Church Cemetery page.  Here you will find a listing of people interred in our cemetery.  As Death is an unexpected event this page is as complete as possible.  Although there are new additions to our cemetery, so some listings may not appear as of today’s date.

 

The Land where the Church and Cemetery are presently located was once called Hickory Hill.  It was later changed to James Chapel when the Church was moved to this location in 1895.  The first burial in this cemetery was John Ballard in Feb 1891.  John Ballard was buried on Hickory Hill due to Blood River being flooded at the time and they could not cross the river to bury him at Bethlehem Baptist Church Cemetery in Albany Louisiana.

 

Row A

Row A is the row located at the rear fence of the cemetery and starts in the left hand corner as you are facing the cemetery from the parking area of the church.
