- Description
- This image is of a headstone at Lang's Cemetery for Susan Sands, born April 23, 1839 and died November 21, 1858 at the age of 19.
- 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.
Susan was the daughter of Lawrence and Jannett Sands and the sister of Eliza Sands/Lang. - Inscriptions
