Default Hayward tomb St Mary Aylesbury

On Tuesday we went over to Aylesbury to the RO and then went to St Mary's Church to view the tomb that they had discovered under years' growth of ivy.

I thought you might like to see some photos.







I have been able to read the inscription on this long face:

left-hand side
CHARLES HAYWARD
Died 13th March 1829
Aged 46 Years
WILLIAM Son of
JOHN AND HARRIETT ELIZABETH PARROTT
Died 5th February 1880
aged 66 Years


right-hand side
HARRIETT ELIZABETH Daughter of
JOHN PARROTT AND HARRIETT
ELIZABETH his Wife died 11th April 1821
in the seventh Year of her Age.
ALFRED their Son died 7th March 1824
Aged thirteen Months
HARRIETT ELIZABETH Wife of
JOHN PARROTT died 29th December
1840 Aged 56 Years
JOHN PARROTT died
10th February 1849
Aged 62 Years.

This is the John Parrott who was the brother of my Anne Parrott who married Daniel Jeffcoat at the same church.

This one is giving me more problems as it is the oldest inscription:





Here lie the remains? of
LOUISA ELIZ. HAYWARD
who died April ? 1807
? aged ? 11 Months
SUSANNAH ELIZABETH HAYWARD
Children of WILLIAM HAYWARD
And ELIZABETH his wife
And of
ELIZABETH HAYWARD
who died 19th April 1820 Aged 44?
And of the said WILLIAM HAYWARD
who died ? February 1830 aged 53?

The next photo shows a grave next to the tomb. It is of Henry Hayward, surgeon, and one of his daughters:

Thanks, Shona, I feel very lucky to have found this.

I have deciphered a little more of the end of the tomb which is barely legible.
Luckily NBI3 helps with some of the burial dates and I also have wills and a couple of newspaper articles to help too.
