Sambo's Grave, Sunderland Point
Sunderland Point
"Samboo/Sambo (the gravestone is spelled Samboo, but most other references are Sambo) came to Sunderland Point around 1736, the servant of a ships captain, and died in Upsteps Cottage (1 The Lane). That much is certain. Whether (as oral tradition has it) he died of a broken heart because he thought his master had left him when he went to Lancaster, or died of a sickness on arriving in a strange country, or died of some other cause is lost in time."
