Tombstone Tuesday - John Mucklow

In recent postings, I have talked about John Mucklow, my great-great grandfather. (check for Mucklow in my surname list).

John was a gamekeeper. Here is a photo of his tombstone.

In Memory of
a Faithful Servant
John Mucklow
Born Aug. 21 1821
Died Nov. 6 1904
aged 83
 


 

The tombstone quite likely was paid for by his employer Sir. W. Throckmorton of Coughton Court.
I believe he is buried in Aston Cantlow. I have to check on that.
