Yes, my husband and I found the church and cemetery. Bearytown is now called the village of Fayette. The church is on the east side of Rt. 414. It was right across or kitty-corner from the Fayette post office. The village is really small so it wasn't to hard to find it.The church was really neat, complete with a wrought iron fence, I sure wish we could of went inside. The cemetery is located right behind it. It does have old stones but not sure of the earliest ones. My ancestors were buried there in 1844. I received a note from a really nice lady who said her ancestor Henry Singer had donated the land for the church and cemetery Aug 31, 1810. So there is a good chance that your ancestor is buried there. She may also contact you.
I hope that this has helped some and if you ever visit you sure won't be disapointed.
Good luck,
Kathleen
