History

An unmarked cemetery site discovered during the relocation of a section of Meridianville Bottom Road in July 2012 may be a family graveyard associated with the early settlers of Madison County. Historic records indicate that white farmers, along with their slaves, settled in this area of Madison County prior to 1809, as evidenced by Enon Baptist Church, which was organized in that year and whose original site is located approximately 1 mile north of here. The cemetery sits atop an abrupt knob in an open field and provides a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. An archaeological investigation revealed what appears to be 4 larger graves and 11 smaller graves within the confines of the site. The cemetery, now defined by the fenced area, was listed in the Alabama Historic Cemetery Register on October 16, 2013.
