From West Point, GA take Georgia Highway 18 East. GA 103 intersects with GA 18 just east of Interstate 85's exit 2. Take GA 103 South for 7.7 miles. New Hope Cemetery Road will be on the west side and is marked with a street sign. This dirt road with the turn off, for the cemetery, on the right at the top of the hill. The small road deadends at the cemetery.

From Columbus, GA, take Interstate 185 North to exit 25. Go west to Ga 219, crossing GA 219 to GA 103 North. New Hope Cemetery Road is 6.3 miles from GA 219. If you miss getting the odometer reading, New Hope Cemetery Road is between mile marker 6 and 7 on GA 103.

This cemetery has many field stone markers and possible many graves not marked at all. These records are only of the grave stones that can be read. Some of the concrete slabs have weathered to the point of being unreadable.

These records were compiled on 11 Feb 2002. The information was taken directly from the grave stones. The cemetery has been cleaned and many broken markers have been repaired.

New Hope Methodist Church building is no longer standing. The cemetery is the only thing left. New Hope Methodist Church was organized in 1847. The last burial, in the cemetery, was in 1954.
