Mrs. Lim Peng Cheng nee Madam Tan Meow Ngoh passed away at the age of 37 on 1st February 1930. The Teochew tomb with beautiful decorative tiles has her name and her husband's name listed on the tomb. Fortunately for me, the names of the children are also listed. Often for Teochew tombs, you don't have this information and it makes tracing the family tree much harder. The names of the children of Madam Tan Meow Ngoh are;
Sons: Lim Teo Thai, Lim Teo Guan, Lim Teo Hock, Lim Teo Sing, Lim Teo Chuan
Daughters: Lim Siam Keow, Lim Siam Noy, Lim Siam Muay
Madam Tan Meow Ngoh is buried in Hill 3 Section A, plot 216.
