Geocache Description:

An easy find at another historical site in Midlothian, check out the truck Boy Scout Troop 800 owns. wow.


In 1799 the local Baptist Society acquired this land and soon built a meetinghouse.

The Bethel congregation worshiped in the meetinghouse and was constituted as a church in 1817.

About 1820 the members built a brick church here--the first in Chesterfield County. The present sanctuary, which replaced it in 1894, was then the most elaborate rural church in the county, having Gothic buttresses, fine exterior detailing, and a rib-vaulted chancel.

In the churchyard are buried soldiers of virtually every war from the Revolution through Vietnam.
