| - Hebron Church, Cemetery, and Academy is a site in Commerce, Georgia. It was founded in 1796 in what is now Banks County, Georgia. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Hebron Church, Cemetery and Academy. Hebron was formed by Scotch-Irish settlers and Revolutionary veterans who received land grants from the Georgia State Legislature. Hebron is one of the oldest congregations in Banks County. The church was organized by Rev. John Newton, who served as the first pastor. The church building at Hebron is a large, white, frame structure. There is an entrance porch that is closed on three sides. On each side of the porch is a large door. The reason for this double entrance dates back to the days when the men and women separated at the church door and did not sit together as they do now. Some of the notable items regarding Hebron Church include:
* above ground burial vaults from the early days of the cemetery.
* a school (Academy) located on the church grounds
* a number of Revolutionary War Veterans interred in the cemetery.
* nineteen young men from the church were killed during the American Civil War. (en)
