You’ll find Minter’s Chapel ghost town in Tarrant County, Texas, where Green Washington Minter established a Methodist settlement in the 1850s. The community grew around a log church and cemetery, with circuit riders serving the congregation. Today, only the historic Minter’s Chapel Cemetery remains, preserving over 450 graves dating back to 1857. While DFW Airport’s expansion claimed most of the original settlement in 1967, the cemetery’s weathered headstones tell remarkable stories of Texas’s pioneer heritage.
