The Hepzibah Cemetery is an abandoned cemetery just off a small gravel road about 4 miles from Highway 10 between Clinton and Greensburg in East Feliciana Parish. Old Hepzibah Baptist Church, founded in 1813, once stood near the cemetery but has now disappeared completely in dense woods. Many lovely old tombs still stand, but others have broken and are illegible.
