Summary

[edit]
Description

St Mary's Church, Shelton, Norfolk, wall of north aisle - chest tomb of Sir John Shelton (died 1558), inscribed: "Here lies buried Sir John Shelton, who married Margaret, the daughter of Lord Morley, and had issue Raphe, Anne, Airs, and Marie. He died .... November, Anno Dom 1558" (see: Blomefield, History of Norfolk, Vol.V, p.267, quoted by Farrer) (Farrer, Edmund, Church Heraldry of Norfolk, Vol 1 (1885), p.196 [1])

Heraldry

Farrer (1885): I should think, from the appearance of the tombs in this church, that the shields thereon were repainted about fifty years ago, without any regard to tinctures. In every case the field of the Shelton coat is " vert," whereas it should be " azure." I have given them exactly as they are, and where it is evident what they ought to be, I have stated it.
7 shields:

  • 1: Azure, a cross or (Shelton)
  • 2: ..... impaling Shelton
  • 3:Shelton impaling ....
  • 4: Shelton impaling Woodhouse
  • 5: .... impaling Shelton
  • 6: Shelton impaling Morley
  • 7: Shelton
