The first Bethany Meeting House was erected by 1809 on the old Edgefield¬Abbeville Stagecoach Road midway between Hard Labor and Cuffey Town Creeks. Bethany Baptist Church was constituted in December 1809, with Amos DuBose as pastor. The present church is said to have been built in 1850 at Shinburg Muster Grounds, about two miles south of the original site.
