Antioch Cemetery Records
Oak Grove Community, Geneva County, Alabama

To reach cemetery from Geneva, take Hwy #52 east for approximately 4� mi. The church and cemetery will be on the right or south side of the hwy.

This cemetery is owned and maintained by the Antioch Baptist Church in the Oak Grove Community of Geneva County, Alabama, between Hartford and Geneva. Both the church and cemetery are still active.

There are several unmarked graves in this cemetery, and markers for some graves are no longer readable. These I do not have in this transcription.

This is a record of my findings when I did a walk thru and read all the existing headstones on Aug 09, 2003.
