Description
This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Cynthia Westbrook, born May 31, 1829 and died August 12, 1829 at the age of 2 months.
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.

Cynthia was the daughter of James Westbrook and Lovina Westbrook (nee. Langs), and the sister of Andrew Westbrook and James Sydney Westbrook.

There is a spelling mistake as it should be Lovina and not Levina. As well as Cynthia and not Cyntha.
