Marble Hill Methodist. Melson Largent and Elizabeth deeded a quarter acre to the trustees of a Methodist congregation (name not given) on May 12, 1845 (Deed Book W p. 529) for $5. The land was in the NW1/4 Sec. 19 Twp. 2N Range 10E. The trustees were John W. Jones, Samuel Berry, William Largent, Aaronson Smith, and John Lockhart. As Melson Largent, two Berrys, and a Jones are buried in this cemetery, it seems likely the Marble Hill cemetery is associated with this congregation.
