- Description
- This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for John Lampkin, died June 3, 1846 at the age of 2. He was born on September 9 or 10, 1843.
- Notes
- The Lang Cemetery is behind the barn on the east corner of Hwy No.2 and the Madden Road. It is no more than half an acre in size. There are a number of graves without stones. Most of the stones had foot stones that have been removed. This is a family cemetery but in the early days travellers going through have died from epidemics and other reasons and some are buried here with no markers.
John Lampkin was the son of Edward Lampkin and Sydney B. Lampkin (nee. Langs) and was the brother of Martha Lampkin and Helen M. Cornwell (nee Lampkin) and Catherine Lowrey (nee. Lampkin). - Inscriptions
