Reeves Chapel United Methodist Church - Camp County, TX - Country Churches on Waymarking.com

While the church has an active Facebook page, it lacks any significant Internet presence otherwise, and there's not much in the way of history. A 1979 Texas Historical Marker in front of the church does provide a little background on the church, community, and adjacent cemetery:

When a migrant worker died in 1879, there was no cemetery in this community. Counce Reeves, a Civil War veteran who had come from Hamilton County, Georgia, and his wife Selina gave two acres at this site for a church and burial ground. The Rev. D. Dane of Jefferson led in organizing the Reeves Chapel Methodist Church. The congregation erected a brush arbor and in the fall of 1879 constructed a frame meetinghouse. Later Reeves deeded an additional two acres. After the fellowship grew, members initiated efforts to erect a larger building in 1907.
