Directions: Going north out of Marion on Highway 501 North (Main Street),
starting at City Limits, Go 3.1 miles, just pass Merge Point
of 501 Bypass , When Highway becomes 2 lanes, at 1st intersection
is E. Sellers Rd., Make right turn right behind sign that says
Spring Branch Treatment Center .
Cemetery is on left, halfway down the block beside Brick Church.
Recorded on May 28, 2002 By: Shirley Cribb-Matlock
I've learned that the Old Cemetery in the wooded area behind
The Greater Fork Chapel AME Church was Burial Grounds for Fork Chapel
and Spring Branch Baptist Church years ago, so lots of relatives of
these people are buried there as well.
