Description
This is a group of four headstones located approximately 17 meters east of the Church of Saint Mylor. They date from the mid-19th century and commemorate the James family. The headstones are made of freestone and feature nowy-headed slabs with concave corners, arranged in a row from north to south, with the inscriptions facing west. The leftmost slab is dedicated to Mary James, daughter of Samuel and Marianne Porter, who died in 1860 at the age of 2. The next headstone, made by I. Roberts, is for Mary James, wife of William James, who died in 1858 at the age of 82. The third headstone is for Peter Saunders James, son of William and Mary James, who died in 1851 at the age of 56. The rightmost slab honors William James, who died in 1449 at the age of 65. This family group of headstones is visually significant within the churchyard.
