BILL NORTON [bnorton@austin.rr.com] HAS ADOPTED THIS CEMETERY

Started as a Caucasian congregation, the Baptist Ridge Church disbanded around 1910. The building was then renamed and occupied until the 1970s or 1980s by the African American Jericho Baptist Church. The church building was torn down in recent years. At some point, a property line was drawn down the middle of the cemetery and a fence was erected.
