The New Beulah Baptist Church was founded by Rev. Sam Bird in 1871. The first sanctuary was erected in 1891. Over the years, additional land was purchased and a new sanctuary was erected, where services were first held in 1986.
The earliest marked grave in this cemetery is 1903.
The graves are numbered starting in the far left, back as you face the cemetery. The rows go from left to right, coming forward in the cemetery, with the last grave located at the right front of the cemetery.
Graves numbered 300 or higher have been added since the original survey and are believed to be somewhere in the cemetery.
