In loving memory of Edward Kenyon who died at Springfield (house name) November 26th 1908 age 90 years. "At rest from his labours" Also Mary Jane, wife of the above died December 24th 1919 "Peace Perfect Peace" Also Margaret Lockett sister of (Mary Jane) the above born 24th June 1841 died 21st November 1929 "Sweet rest at last"
Margaret Lockett was my g-grandmother. As Edward & Mary Jane had no children of their own they looked after her sisters children including my grandfather, who eventually inherited the house.
Mary Jane's father Hugh Gill was a miller and also had a share in a schooner called "Mary Jane". It is possible that Edward was the captain/share holder in this vessel. Later in the Ramsey trade directories he is listed as a coal factor.
