Monumental Inscriptions in the churchyard of Kenardington Church
The Monumental Inscriptions in the churchyard of Kenardington Church, noted by Leland L. Duncan. Transcribed and typed up by Dawn Weeks.
The following is as far as possible an exact transcription of Mr L.L. Duncan's field notebook for the M.I.s at Kenardington. His notebook written up in his shorthand, in pencil, on the site leaves something to be desired. The paper of the notebook has over time become somewhat dirty and aged but is an immensely valuable record of that date.
