Shiloh Methodist Church Cemetery
Shiloh Methodist Church is important because of the small fenced area of graves located to the side of the church only about 30 feet from the church's front door. This area seems to be the burial grounds for James L. Churchman, his wife, Mary O. Young, and their descendants. I have talked to Sam Mayes, the author of this site, and it is his understanding that everyone buried in this area were large contributors to the church with money and/or land. Harriett (Mynatt) Churchman, wife of Joseph Blackburn Churchman, is buried in the larger part of the cemetery.
