- Description
- This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for John Langs, born August 16, 1799 and died May 30, 1855 at the age of 55.
- 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 Langs was married to Sarah Langs (nee. Westbrook), was the father of George Alfred Langs, the brother of Lovina Westbrook (nee. Langs) and Sidney B. Lampkin (nee. Langs), and is the son of Jacob Langs and Elizabeth Fowler. - Inscriptions
