Next to them are unmarked graves of their son Nathaniel Turner Langston (1870-1897) and Charles's son Desalines W. Langston, buried on October 30, 1931. Syble Langston, Nathaniel's daughter, according to county records, was buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in 1893, either here with the Langston's or with the mothers family, the Greggs. The tilted stone in the right foreground is that of Rev. W. Mercer, pastor of the Warren (9th) St. Baptist Church from 1865 to 1885, during the lives of the Langston's.
