MT. ZION
CHURCH CEMETERY
PORT ROYAL
Take Highway 76 E. 5.6 miles to Port Royal Road. Turn left, go about 1.5 mile. The owner of this property must guide you to the cemetery which is on back side of farm on bank of Sulphur Fork Creek.
We try to keep families grouped together. If someone's last name is listed, it means they have a separate headstone. If it is not listed, they are sharing a headstone with someone else. Sometimes
children are on the same headstone as parents.
Since we do not personally know these families, if we aren't sure of a relationship we list who they are buried next to. Any help matching folks with their relatives will be greatly appreciated.
The information is exactly as it appears on the stones. If you know the person's full name, please let us know.
