| Description |
Sir Christopher Wray (1524 to 1592) was an English Judge and Chief Justice of the Kings bench. He married Anne, daughter of Nicholas Girlington. They had a son and two daughters. Two other daughters died in infancy. The elder daughter Isabel married three times. She died in 1623 aged 63. Frances the younger daughter married first in 1583 to St George St Paul. Secondly she married Robert Rich, first Earl of Warwick. The son William Wray (1555 to 1617) married in 1580 Lucy Montague and secondly about 1600 Frances Drury, their son was Sir Christopher Wray (1601 to 1646). Translation of Inscription on Monument: The chief justice of England. Whoever thou art (or a stranger too) pay your respects to those who are buried. Christopher Wray, who lives here was the glory of our legal system. Pairing business, true by name who shone forth in duty, understanding and faith. Lo, he was here, lo he is not. Swift fate overturns everything. Alas, he is dead to us but he himself survives. Earth to earth, Ashes to Ashes, the heavenly to heavenly things. The spirit of the celestial world he occupies the stars of heaven. He died the seventh day of May 1592 in the 34th year of the reign of Queen Elizabeth. The tomb is probably by Nicholas Johnson. https://flic |
