The grave of George Trant
The grave of George Trant
It is not clear from the gravestone if his daughter Sarah is also buried here, or just remembered on the stone. I suspect she was buried in Wales, especially as her name follows her father's, although she died 10 years earlier (although stones only being erected after a later death, not the first in a grave, are far from unknown)

Inscription:
In
Memory of
George Trant
who departed this
Life on the 9th day
of January 1867
in the 78th year
of his age.
Also Sarah
Daughter of the above
who died in Wales
on the 4th day of January 1857
Aged 42 Years.

This grave is leaning towards that of Thomas Bellett and his wife Elizabeth; Elizabeth was a Trant before her marriage so this seems the part of the churchyard where the Trant family were buried. But so far (at the time of writing, March 2013) I have yet to find how the family of which Elizabeth was a member relates to my Trant ancestors / relations.

The strike was certain but the effect was slow
With wasting pain death found me sore oppress'd
Pitied my sighs and kindly gave me rest
