Sacred to the memory of George Looker who departed this life Dec 17th 1864 aged 72 years. Also of Mary, the beloved wife of the above who departed this life Nov 4th 1867 aged 70 years. Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord.
The epitaph is in fact wrongly transcribed. According to the records my 2 x G Grandfather, George Looker died In December 1864. The engraving is in fact so worn, it has caused this error, which I have corrected.
