Charles Sebastien Theodore Sheppard died at 30 Richmond Street, Port of Spain at 3 p.m. 17th June 1931 buried in Private allotment Lapeyrouse Cemetery.

Buried at Lapeyrouse Cemetery in Port of Spain, Trinidad.
Valerie Sheppard (ID 1547) visited this cemetery on November 12 2007 and took photos.
The grave of Charles and Elsie is still there. Headstone says that Charles died on June 17 1931 at age 45! No date of birth.
Valerie:
“In the register of the Lapeyrouse Cemetery I discovered that the Sheppard grave site was first used for the burial of ALFRED SHEPPARD in 1910. I copied the handwritten entry in the cemetery register. . . I wanted to take a photo but it was not allowed.
I found it interesting that Charles Sheppard's sister Amalia was buried in the Sheppard grave plot with her brother, instead of in the Mendes grave plot with her husband's family”.

The wedding was held at the corner of Shine Street & Park Street on Victoria Square, Port of Spain, home of Mr. Albert Mendes, Elsie Gomez' Godfather. Valerie and I took a photo of the same house on October 20th 2012.
