Description
English: Wall-mounted monument in All Hallows' parish church, Woolfardisworthy, Devon to Richard Hammett (1707–66) of Kennerland. It reads:
"Sacred to the memory of Richard Hammett, Gentleman, who died the 26th March 1766 aged 59 years and also Elizabeth his wife (only daughter and child of Philip Risdon, Gentleman) who died the 24th March 1787 aged 77 years. They have left a numerous issue by whom they were most deservedly beloved and will be ever lamented. This token of respect to their good parents is erected by their three daughters Mary, Thomazin & Gertrude".
