Flint Valley Cemetery
Columbia, Maury County, Tennessee, USA
From Communities and Legacies: Maury County's African American History, A Driving Tour
Elder Eli Gant organized the church in 1875, and the congregation held services under a brush arbor at the rear of the farm owned by Henry and Parthenia Alley.
The congregation built a frame church, replacing it in 1963 with the present concrete-block building, last renovated in 2003. Located just behind the church, Flint Valley Cemetery contains burials dating to at least 1900. It is the final resting place of several military veterans as well as elders and deacons of the church.
Four of the twenty-six marked graves mark the resting places of individuals who were born before the Civil War, presumably in slavery.
