Madam Lim Yu Tong is the wife of Mr. Seow Poh Hoon and daughter-in-law of Mr. Seow Chye Watt. She was born on 2 June 1883 and passed away on 10 September 1909. She was 26 years old when she passed away. I found this tomb so interesting as they used the top left and right to fill out the information in English.
