SHEFFIELD/LEWIS CEMETERY [African-American], Haynor Pasture, Glynn Co., Georgia
Transcribed by Amy Hedrick, 2003

This cemetery is located in the Haynor Hunting Club
property.  I haven't any other information on this
cemetery right now.  The directions will not be
disclosed as this is private property, I was not
allowed to write them down, and it would be too hard
to describe the location.   

Many locals, and I am sure any existing family
members, may know where this cemetery is so directions
aren't necessary.

Also, this isn't the true name of the cemetery.  Since
I haven't any info to document the name, I chose the
two last names of the people buried out here which are
two Sheffields and three Lewis family members.

From the looks of the land, this may have been a
plantation at one time, there is a line of tall trees,
as if it were marking  a driveway to a big plantation
home.

I was told that there is one more cemetery out there,
or a monument anyways, dedicated to a MOODY family
ancestor. We were not able to find it however, it may
have been destroyed.
