Descripción
At first glance, you might think a lion had been buried in Abney Park. Actually, the big white cat marks the grave of Frank Bostock (and his wife, Susannah). Known for educating Victorian Britain about African and Asian wildlife — an Attenborough of his day, if you will — Frank had been a lion trainer since he was 15. He survived both a tiger and lion mauling and had his finger bitten off by an ape. He died of the flu.
General William and Catherine Booth are also buried here. They were the founders of the Salvation Army, and their family plot lies near the Church Street entrance, a Salvation Army badge marking their plot.
