About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The King Chapel Community Church Cemetery is immediately adjacent to the King Chapel Community Church, located on Adgateville Road (U. S. Highway 11 South) near the unincorporated community of Adgateville, Jasper County, Georgia. (The mailing address of the church used to be Adgateville, Georgia but with the closure of Adgateville's Post Office in 1947, the mailing address changed to Hillsboro, Georgia.)

This cemetery is a historic African-American Cemetery, and was formerly known as the King Chapel AME [African Methodist Episcopal] Church Cemetery. (The congregation elected to rename the church in 1994.) AME churches were established in Georgia during Reconstruction (1865 - 1877) to minister to the newly freed slaves, and it is likely that these are the roots of this church and cemetery.

There are numerous alternate names for the cemetery, several of which use the possessive in the name, e.g., King's Chapel Cemetery. Another of the more common alternative cemetery names is found in Georgia Death Certificates for Black citizens, Adgateville Cemetery.
