the church of the Austin Friars; this is now a house containing
fragments of the friary. It is difficult to make out the
effigies from this aspect but Lucy is just about visible.

Alabaster by William Calder Marshall. Note she
holds her baby son, Frederick, who died at one
day old; his mother died six weeks later. He husband (the First
Earl of Liverpool) placed over sixty memorials to his wife in
thirty-eight churches that were associated with the family. The
monument was moved here in 1908 but I can find no further
information. Louisa Blanche Folijambe was buried at
Scofton, Nottinghamshire. Father information is needed.
