Cemetery information:- On 1 November 1859, known as All Saints’ Day, Chief Fabu met with Archdeacon Waters and the Reverend John Gordon of the ‘Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts’ (SPG). Chief Fabu granted them a stretch of land in the Xuka Valley. Soon thereafter the All Saints’ Mission Station was founded under the leadership of Reverend Gordon. In 1876 Walter Stanford arrived at the Mission Station to take up his post as resident Magistrate. He established the seat of his magistracy some 8km from the Mission Station on a site locally known as Engcobo – ‘a green place next to a stream’. However, merely 3 years later, in 1879, both the Mission Station and the Magistry were burnt down. The Magistry was re-established at Engcobo in 1881. (source: Wikipedia) There are many unmarked graves in this cemetery Album incomplete,although all visible graves were photographed at the time.
