Thanks Berenice, extremely nice memorial in its simplicity.

Holmes appears on six memorials in all, these five and this one, it is quite a number.


PS
On the subject of stonemason's errors; the gravestone next to my grandparents contains the word "Angles".

Hello,
I just stumbled upon this - did you return to Eastrington? I thought you’d have seen a Holmes in the graveyard - there are a few. Their nephew is buried in there (died 1988).
