Valerie Sheppard (ID 1547) visited this cemetery on November 12 2007 and took photos.
Headstones says: born on May 14 1887, died on April 4 1975.
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”.
