The historical name of the original, smaller church building was the "Newest Church", which was enlarged to current size in the early 1990's. The church changed to the "Newell Chapel CME Church" about 2005, which is evident in the obituaries of those that were buried, after that year.



From Exit 18 of I-22/US-78, travel north on Victoria Rd. for 0.2 mi., then turning west (left) onto MS-178, then north (right) onto Cayce Rd., traveling 2.0 mi. Then turn east (right) onto Moore Rd., for 0.5 mi., before turning north (left) into the parking lot of the Newell Chapel CME Church's parking lot & the church's cemetery to the west & north of the parking lot. Aerial view of the cemetery indicates there are well over 150 burials, though many may not have permanent markers. Early Topographical maps indicate that there may also be an older cemetery on the east side of the church.
