BURNT CORN, ALABAMA

NEW HOPE CHURCH

New Hope Church

This church building was built in 1968. However, the best records available show the cemetery as having been in existence since 1900 and probably as early as 1850. The New Hope Cemetery is also known as New Hope AME Zion Church and Cemetery.

The New Hope Cemetery and AME Zion Church are located on County Road 15, approximately 3 miles southeast from the community of Burnt Corn. The church and cemetery will be on the left. There are two smaller family cemeteries in the near vicinity named the Lee Cemetery and the John Green Cemetery. Quite often a burial may be held at either of the smaller cemeteries but the memorial/obituary may list the person as being at New Hope in error.
