Elizabeth, Georgia

The Georgia Northeastern Railroad (reporting mark GNRR) is a short line freight railroad which runs from the town of Elizabeth, Georgia (now within Marietta, northwest of Atlanta) to the city of Blue Ridge, Georgia. Goods hauled are mostly timber, grain, poultry, and marble products. The GNRR's subsidiary, the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, also operates on this line north of Blue Ridge. Despite the name, it actually operates between north-central and northwest Georgia, from north-northwest metro Atlanta, and is a few counties away from northeast Georgia. Purchased from CSX, the line interconnects with the Western & Atlantic subdivision of CSX at Elizabeth Yard in Marietta at milepost 22.0 (33°58′29″N 84°33′25″W), located 22 miles (35 km) from downtown Atlanta. GNRR tracks include a long rail siding along the east side of the triple CSX tracks, from just north of Kennesaw Avenue, over Tower Road, to just north of Loudermilk Drive, where it rejoins what becomes the main northbound CSX track. The main GNRR track splits from the GNRR siding at a rail switch just north of Tower Road, and parallels the other tracks to just before Marr Avenue, before a sharp turn to the east. Between Marr, Loudermilk, the GNRR siding, and GNRR mainline, there are two dead-end sidings extending north on the east side of the GNRR office, and one of those has another dead-end siding extending north on the west side of the office.

St. James' Episcopal Church Cemetery was founded in 1849, as a parish burial ground that was laid out on the furthest corner of the 20-acre St. James' Episcopal Church property, at the corner of Winn Street and what is now Polk Street in Marietta, Georgia. However, much of the space between the cemetery and St. James' is now owned by First United Methodist Church. The cemetery is completely surrounded by an iron fence. It can be accessed through a gate on Polk Street. The cemetery is open daily, except for major holidays and severe weather events. Some of the most famous families in Cobb County are represented in this cemetery including the Glovers (John Glover was the first mayor of Marietta and his wife would donate the land for the Confederate Cemetery), Lawrences, Sessions', Whitlocks, Hunts, Schillings, Northcutts, and many other first families. A columbarium and the "Garden of Peace" are located in the southeast corner of the cemetery. While only partially full, all of the columbarium slots and garden tombstones have been sold to living patrons, along with all other burial space in the cemetery. The cemetery was originally mapped in 1955, but the map was revised in 2013. It is rumored that during the Civil War, slaves were buried in the southwest corner of the cemetery in unmarked graves. However, no evidence proving this has ever been found. Most of the southwest corner of the cemetery is currently taken up by marked graves from the 1960s and 1970s.
