The Doyle Family zinc headstone is within the People's Cemetery incorporated in 1883. Located in Queens County, the People's Cemetery is also known as the People's Protestant Cemetery. There are over 700 interments most with upright headstones.

This four sided headstone is about 5 feet in height and is in very good condition. The inscription is very legible.

There are two names inscribed as follows:

John Holman
Died May 26th, 1897
Ages 78 years
(year of birth 1819)
HOLMAN

Mothers Grave
In Loving Memory of
Ann Wife of John Holman
Died May 28, 1888

The cemetery was incorporated in 1883. The cemetery offers both traditional and cremation burials. Located in the cemetery is a columbarium niche that is surrounded by flower gardens and benches for quiet reflection. Over the past few years the cemetery has been landscaped with flower gardens throughout. Some trees which add to the beauty of the cemetery are over 130 years old.

Open to all denominations, the cemetery is governed by a board of directors who are responsible for its operation.
