Sarah White Quinton

Above is the headstone for Sarah White Quinton. The inscription says that Sarah died March 7, 1907, aged 77 years. She is buried in the General Protestant Cemetery in St. John's. The photos above were provided by Wayne Pike.

The following photos were taken by me (David Pike) on 17 May 2011. Sarah's stone, which had been leaning badly, now rests flat on the ground.

Sarah's headstone was put back upright on 27 April 2012:
