    1. Re: [SCAIKEN] Re: The Old Langley Cemetery
    2. This record states that there are records of the burials. I am not sure if this is the same cemetery I am thinking of, but there are no records for it, if it is the same one. There is no location recorded for those burial records. Question: If records exist, where are they? Where Hannon Rupert get the info that there were records? The cemetery that I am thinking of is known now by another name.....Cowen?? not sure.... whoever owns the land now....... and I understood that many of the graves were moved to the new Langley Cemetery years ago, but not all. Is anyone in the community trying to do a clean up of the cemetery? Seems like an excellent opportunity to record the graves there, discover the stones buried, and perhaps have a local gen society write a book listing those graves, maybe including pictures.
