The tomb of a wife of Mr. Cheang Jim Kong is located among the clusters of relocated tomb and is next to the tomb of Madam Khoo Beng Choo (wife of Mr. Cheang Jim Khean).
What led me to this conclusion is because of the name of the children listed on this tomb matches exactly the tomb of Mr. Cheang Jim Kong at Whitley Road Cemetery;
Sons:Cheang Moh Yam, Cheang Moh Seng, Cheang Moh Chye
Daughters: Cheang Siew Neo, Cheang Chee Neo, Cheang Soo Neo
5th June 1931
Husband: Cheang Jim Kong
A newspaper article dated 10th December 1949 announced the death of Cheang Jim Kong, (a son of the late Cheang Hong Lim) at his residence at No. 177 Havelock Road on 7th December 1949 at 12:05 am. He was survived by his wife, 7 sons, 1 daughter-in-law, 3 daughters, 3 son-in-laws and 1 granddaughter. Cheang Jim Kong was buried in Whitley Cemetery. From the tomb engraving, Cheang Jim Kong passed away on 7th December 1949 at the age of 70. The name of the children listed on his tomb are sons; Cheang Moh Yam, Cheang Moh Seng, Cheang Moh Chye, Cheang Moh Kim, Cheang Moh Hwa, Cheang Moh Hock, Cheang Moh Kee and daughters; Cheang Siew Neo, Cheang Chee Neo, Cheang Soo Neo, granddaughter; Cheang Siok Tin.

Location
The tomb of the wife of Cheang Jim Kong is located at Block 3 Division D where a number of relocated tombs are located.
I think she may be Madam Seoh Cheo Neo in the burial register.
