- Description
- This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Jannett Sands, born in 1767 or 1768 and died May 27, 1894 at the age of 90.
- 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.
Jannett was the wife of Lawrence Sands and the mother of Susan Sands and Eliza Langs (nee. Sands). - Inscriptions
