Martha Ann Vaughan Chambers donated an acre of land near Chambers Mineral Springs on November 6, 1869, as a site for a Methodist Episcopal Church South. Three wooden frame buildings have stood there. The first was built in 1870 and was destroyed by a tornado about twenty years later. The second, a large one-room frame church, burned on December 4, 1927. The third was built in 1928 and had a brick facade added in 1959. The church's original trustees were Madison H. Chambers, Dr. Fred T. Sweet, Lt. Col. James Mortimer Crews, C.S.A., John James, and W.P. Thompson, and witnesses to the 1869 deed were Henry Talbot Bragg and William A. Redd. Many early Shelby County settlers of the Arlington area and generations of their descendants are interred in the adjoining cemetery, which is endowed for the continuing use of member families with perpetual care ensured. Chambers Chapel Road is named for the church and burial grounds. The church's cornerstone inscription reads 1870-1892-1928, and the 1928 Building Commission was H.S. Bragg, A.W. Herring, F.E. Adams, I.F. Russell, F.S. Bragg, M. Gotten, and J.E. Griffin.
