  * [[gonggang|Gonggang]]

Umumnya, "Kampung Gonggang" mungkin merujuk kawasan-kawasan petempatan kediaman dan perkebunan yang berhampiran dengan pusat bandar Kuala Lumpur, yang berasingan dari lembah "[[gonggang|Gonggang]]" di Setapak (kawasan perlombongan di lembangan Sungai Bunus di utara Kuala Lumpur). Suatu ketika dahulu, kampung ini pernah meliputi sehingga ke Tanah Perkuburan Jalan Ampang (dahulu Perkuburan Gonggang) di sebelah selatan, Kampung Datuk Keramat di sebelah timur, dan KEMENTAH (dahulu [[gonggang#pewartaan_rifle_range|Rifle Range]]) di sebelah timur laut.

Menurut Abdul-Razzaq Lubis (2018), Kampung Gonggang terletak berhampiran petempatan orang Gonggang (suku orang Siak). Tanah Perkuburan Ampang dahulu dinamakan "Tanah Perkuburan Kampung Gonggang", yang dikatakan berhampiran dengan petempatan ini: //"In Kuala Lumpur and its surroundings, the status of Muslim endowments and burial ground was precarious. The Sanitary Board of Kuala Lumpur was formed in 1900, and one of its first tasks was to relocate cemeteries away from the populated town centre, for reasons of public health. In 1891, the large Muslim burial ground near the confluence of Gombak and Klang rivers was cleared, fenced up, and supposedly exhumed. As it turned out, not all the graves were disinterred; some remained in the compound of the Masjid Jamek right up till the twenty-first century. A new cemetery was established just outside town at Ampang Road. ('The public Mohamadan Cemetery is on the other side of the Klang River near Ampang Road. A strong six feet bridge was erected to give necessary access to it.' A. Hale, vice chairman of the Kuala Lumpur land office, as reported in the Malay Mail, 13 April 1904, reproduced in Khoo Kay Kim, Kuala Lumpur, 27.) It was originally called Tanah Perkuburan Kampung Gonggang, as it was located near the settlement of orang Gonggang (a subgroup of orang Siak). (This Kampung Gonggang is different from the Gonggang settlement near Setapak. Interview with Haji Shahrir Kamil, 30 November/1 December 2016)."// (Abdur-Razzaq Lubis, 2018: [[https://arecabooks.com/product/sutan-puasa-founder-of-kuala-lumpur/|"Sutan Puasa, Founder of Kuala Lumpur"]], m.s. 505).

Menurut Pejabat DYMM Sultan Selangor, Raja Laut (putera kedua Sultan Muhammad Shah, Sultan Selangor ke-3) dikebumikan di Perkuburan Gonggang, kini Tanah Perkuburan Jalan Ampang, pada tahun 1913: //"Apabila Kesultanan Selangor mengurniakan gelaran Tunku Mahkota untuk Almarhum sebagai pewaris takhta kepada Tengku Musa Eddin Ibni Sultan Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah, Raja Muda Laut tetap mengekalkan gelaran ‘Raja Muda’ sehingga kemangkatan Almarhum pada 9 Jun 1913. Almarhum dimakamkan di Tanah Perkuburan Kampong Gonggang (kini dikenali sebagai Tanah Perkuburan Jalan Ampang) Kuala Lumpur. Sebagai tanda penghargaan dan mengingati jasa dan bakti Almarhum, nama Raja Laut diabadikan sebagai nama sebatang jalan di Kuala Lumpur yang bersambung dengan Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman."// (Selangor Royal Office, 6 Oktober 2020: {{ :facebook:siapa_raja_laut_tahukah_anda_raja_laut..._-_selangor_royal_office_facebook.pdf ||}}[[https://www.facebook.com/selangorroyaloffice/posts/pfbid02NcotSoy3dB6GNhvBue8iVZMNNEk31NU7rXrddbz2hs6BYgxifbbZ4HuvSXg2XoMml|"SIAPA RAJA LAUT?"]]).

Sekitar tahun-tahun 1920-an dan 1930-an, terdapat beberapa peristiwa telah dilaporkan di akhbar-akhbar, melibatkan sebuah petempatan bernama "Kampung Gonggang", yang terletak berhampiran dengan [[gonggang#pewartaan_rifle_range|Rifle Range]] (kini kawasan Kementerian Pertahanan (KEMENTAH)). Kampung ini menjadi sebahagian daripada Kampung Datuk Keramat kini: //"Jalan Datuk Keramat: This road lies within the village of Datuk Keramat, which was once part of Gonggang and Kampung Tangga Cina. The 170-acre area was declared a Malay Reserve in 1957. ...

===== 1891: Pembukaan Perkuburan Kampung Gonggang =====

Tanah perkuburan lama di Kuala Lumpur terletak di sebelah utara pertemuan Sungai Gombak dan Sungai Klang, iaitu di tapak Masjid Jamek Kuala Lumpur kini: //"In 1891, the large Muslim burial ground near the confluence of Gombak and Klang rivers was cleared, fenced up, and supposedly exhumed.

Pada tahun 1891, ia telah dipindahkan ke tanah perkuburan baru di tebing selatan Sungai Klang (Jalan Ampang kini). Sebuah jambatan dibina bagi menghubungkan tanah perkuburan itu dengan tebing utara Sungai Klang (kemungkinan sebahagian daripada kawasan Kampung Gonggang), lalu dinamakan Tanah Perkuburan Kampung Gonggang: //"A new cemetery was established just outside town at Ampang Road.

Kes pembunuhan melibatkan pekerja ladang getah berdekatan [[gonggang#pewartaan_rifle_range|Rifle Range]] (mungkinkah Gonggang Estate?). Pembunuhnya melarikan diri ke Gonggang (Mungkingkah Kampung Gonggang?) sebelum diberkas polis: //"Chief Court Inspector Taylor, gave a brief outline of how the alleged crime was committed, from which it appeared that the accused worked on a rubber plantation somewhere in the vicinity of the Ampang Rifle Range. Living with him was a woman named Letchmi, who was not married to the accused but had had two children by him. On the 12th of November, 1921, accused went out to work, as usual, leaving the woman and children in the lines. He came back from work about 8.30a.m., and asked the woman for betel-nut leaves etc. She apparently did not attend to him quickly enough, and a quarrel ensured, during the course which the accused is alleged to have stabbed the woman in the abdomen and left upper arm with a tapping gouge. The woman ran out of the cooly lines shouting, and met the mandor whom she informed that the accused had stabbed her. She was taken to the General Hospital and operated upon by the Medical Officer at once. She died the following evening from shock.
