The Faulk Methodist Church is located about 3 miles west of Clio, Alabama on the Clio-Brundidge Highway. The Methodist Conference carried the church under the name of Liberty, but most of its membership consisted of Faulks or their relatives; therefore it has always been known as Faulk's Church. The Henry Lawson Faulk Sr. family that settled west of Clio in the early 1820's were Methodist. In 1826 the church had 104 white members and 20 black members. The church building that is standing today was erected in 1935 by people of the community. The church has been inactive for many years. The cemetery is adjacent to the church and has been maintained by some of the descendants of the members of the church, whose graves are located there.
