| Minter's Chapel Methodist
Church was founded in 1845 by Rev. Green Minter,
a circuit rider and early settler in Tarrant and Dallas Counties. He was
aided by Rev. Nathan Hudgins, a Methodist minister of Birdville, in preaching
to persons of all faiths worshiping together in the first quaint building
fashioned of hand-hewn logs. This building also served the community as
a school and meeting place.
The church and its adjoining cemetery, which has continued to be maintained
since the founding of the congregation, occupy land donated by James
Cate, who with his wife was among the charter members of the congregation.
The cemetery is located on the west side of DFW Airport. From Euless
or Arlington, take State Highway 360 north to Mid-Cities Blvd and take
a right toward the airport. Turn left onto Airfield Dr. which is at about
the third stoplight. There is a sign for the cemetery before you get
to the stoplight where you will turn left again. Just before you get
to this stoplight, you will be able to see the cemetery on the hill to
the left. After you turn to the left take an immediate right. Minter's
Chapel Methodist Church was relocated to Grapevine, Texas at 4344 Heritage
Ave.
