- Description
- This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Nelson Langs, born 1826 or 1827 and died February 15, 1900 at the age of 73.
- 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.
Nelson Langs was married to Eliza Sands and was the father of Susan Langs. - Inscriptions
