Bethel (Crossroads) Cemetery
Huntington, Cabell County, West Virginia

Contributed by Cassandra Griffith, Dec 29, 2000 [cgrif30057@aol.com].
Total records = 117.

Bethel (Crossroads) Cemetery was originally for the Afro American population of Huntington. My understanding is there are several whites buried there also. Was started by the McClain Funeral Home. My understanding is the original records no longer exist There appear to be numerous unmarked graves. The cemetery is in poor condition.

About 2 years ago a program was initiated to clear the cemetery of the over growth. It has since become overgrown again. There are graves in and down the side of the hill. Some are impossible to get too. These names were obtained from several different sources including a walk through.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
