Description
This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Martha Lampkin born Dec. 20 1838 died Nov. 26, 1852 at age 13.
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.

Martha Lampkin was the daughter of Edward Lampkin and Sydney Lampkin (nee. Langs) and was the sister of John Lampkin, Catherine Lowrey, and Helen M. Cornwell (nee. Lampkin).
