Bethel Memorial Park Cemetery

Cabell County, United States

The Bethel Memorial Park Cemetery was established in 1927 and served as a burial ground for African American families during the era of segregation in Huntington, West Virginia. Over 800 individuals were interred at the cemetery, though only approximately 150 headstones remain today due to prolonged periods of neglect and limited financial resources. The final recorded burial took place in 1974. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2025.
