Description
This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Sydney B. Lampkin, born June 3, 1809 and died February 18, 1893 at the age of 83.
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.

Sydney Lampkin (nee. Langs) was the wife of Edward Lampkin, the mother of Catherine Lowrey, Martha Lampkin, John Lampkin, and Helen M. Cornwell (nee. Lampkin), the maternal grandmother of Harry Dare Lowrey, Wilhelmine Lowrey, James W. Lowrey, and Rebecca J.C.D. Lowrey, the daughter of Jacob Langs & Elizabeth Fowler, and the sister of John Langs and Lovina Westbrook (nee. Langs).
