About this book
In Search of Gravestones Old and Curious is by W. T. Vincent and has one hundred and two illustrations. W. T. Vincent is given as President of the Woolwich District Antiquarian Society.
A gravestone at Newhaven, Sussex, carries the inscription To the Memory of Thomas Tipper, who departed this life May y'e 14th, 1785, Aged 54 Years. The text says scarcely any headstones are discoverable of a date earlier than 1650. The text says the ivy-clad churches of Hornsey and Hendon may be cited as examples familiar to Londoners in which the taste engendered by a beautiful edifice has influenced for good its surroundings.
