Henrietta Stockdale Memorial and Grave
|
Sister Henrietta Stockdale died in Kimberley on 6 October 1911, aged 64, and was buried at the Dutoitspan Cemetery.
The graves of Sister Henrietta and of two fellow workers were re-interred alongside at St Cyprian's Cathedral in 1984. The bronze statue by Jack Penn was unveiled by Bishop Wheeldon in 1970. Nearby lie the re-interred remains of Archdeacon George Mervyn Lawson, 1865–1945, Director of Missions for Griqualand West from 1903 and Archdeacon of Kuruman, 1913-1941. A garden of remembrance around the graves was consecrated on 5th March 2007 as part of the cathedral's centenary. You will find this at the front of the cathedral, on the right hand side (on Dutoitspan Road) |
