History

This is the family grave of J D Campbell (dates unknown) who, according to the inscription, was “late of Peru”. He is not buried in the mausoleum. The first interment is that of Charles Edward Campbell (1871-1906) probably J D Campbell’s son. The mausoleum also contains the body of Delmira Vargas de Campbell (1836-1906) presumed to be J D Campbell’s widow.
