Somerset Monumental Inscriptions NORMAN/BAGEHOT
« on: Tuesday 12 February 19 21:51 GMT (UK) »
I am researching a family on FindMyPast and have come across a monumental inscription for George NORMAN b 1853, d 1807, Langport, Somerset. This is definitely the right person.

There is an intriguing note "Husband of Ann (daughter of Thomas and Priscilla BAGEHOT, decd.). c1910 copy of this lost MI incorrectly recorded year as 1808, but PR: says he was buried on 18 Dec 1807. See also KENT"

Does anyone familiar with the Somerset MIs know if the notes would have come from the memorial itself or is some extra knowledge from somewhere else?

Many thanks

Jo

That record on FindMyPast was provided by Somerset and Dorset  family history society, it may be worth contacting them
Census information is Crown Copyright, from www.nationalarchives.gov.uk
