SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF

AGED 82 YEARS
ALSO OF
MARTHA,
THE BELOVED WIFE OF THE ABOVE
WHO DIED JAN 5TH 1899,
AGED 59 YEARS
INTERRED IN DESBOROUGH CHURCHYARD
"AT REST"
John Foster
was born at Desborough about 1847, the son of
Robert Foster of
Rothwell and Elizabeth
Sharp of Great Easton in Leicestershire.
I believe his wife to be
Martha Yeomans,
married between 1881 and 1891 - there is a BMD index record for John in 1888
but no wife with the same reference, so one or the other has been mis-indexed.
Martha was buried in Desborough churchyard, with a
memorial there.
