AND OF ISAAC, THEIR SON

Oct 30th 1845

"As we have borne the image of the earthly

we shall also bear the image of the

heavenly."  Cor. XV.49

This part gravestone has turned out to be the bottom part of gravestone 39 (George and Lydia Miller). When East Boldre Community Stores bought the chapel it was found tucked behind gravestones 38 and 39. The width of the two stones is the same (63.2cm) and the groove detail inset from the edges matches up.

The first part of the inscription refers to Lydia Miller who, according to the chapel burial registers died in March 1846 aged 74.

Having excavated the base of gravestone 39 the break along its bottom edge seems to match the break along the top edge of this gravestone.

George and Lydia had a son Isaac on 27th Feb 1804, the third of their 8 children. He was baptised on 11th March 1804 at Beaulieu church.

It has not been possible to identify other records that definitively refer to Isaac.

 

George, Lydia and Isaac all died in the mid 1840's which is most likely why they were all commemorated on the same gravestone although it seems Isaac may have died in St Pancras and may have been buried there rather than at the chapel.
