Eastern Cape, ALBANY district, Highlands, St Cyprians Anglican Church, cemetery

Cemetery information:-

St. Cyprians Anglican Church was dedicated on 29 November 1893 and is situated at 'Highlands', Albany District, near Grahamstown.
It was originally the engineers residence during railway construction on the Grahamstown to Port Elizabeth line (circa 1878 - 1879).
Gratitude must be extended to Pam Austin of the farm "Highlands" for opening the church and giving us historical information on families of the district. A very friendly widowed farmer of 78 years who is single handedly sheep farming on two family farms.

This is a complete record of all headstones as well as memorial plaques inside the church as at August 2005.
