Victims of the 1848-9 Lambeth cholera outbreak

Victims of the 1848-9 Lambeth cholera epidemic - at least 1,618 Lambeth waterfront residents perished and were buried in unmarked graves in the burial ground in Lambeth High Street, now Lambeth Recreation Ground.  However, it is likely many victims were unrecorded and the death toll was much higher.
