EFFINGHAM COUNTY, GA - CEMETERIES Zion Cemetery Copyright.

Howard Paper Mill, now Georgia Pacific, and very difficult to get to. You must have permission from the Georgia Pacific Plant Security management to gain access. The brick enclosure was a common practice about 100 years ago, but there are thought to be many graves which are not located any more and even some are thought to be outside the fence, so Georgia Pacific will not let anyone dig or harvest timber from the immediate area outside the fence, fearing that they might uncover human remains and have to expand the place.
