DescriptionSt Marys church, Burford - monument to Edmund Cornwall (geograph 3422340).jpg |
English: St Mary's Church, Burford - monument to Edmund Cornwall (1488-1508), elder son and heir apparent of Sir Thomas Cornwall (1468–1537) of Burford, by his wife Anne Corbet, a daughter of Sir Richard Corbet of Moreton Corbet. The Latin inscription reads "Edmund Cornewaylle, son and heir of Thomas Cornewaylle of Burford. Knight died the ... day of January in the year of our lord 1508th and his age the 20th. May he rest in peace". The Cornwalls of Burford were the younger branch of an ancient family which traced its descent from an illegitimate son of Richard, Earl of Cornwall, brother of Henry III.
Wikipedia: Sir Thomas Cornwall (1468–1537) was the 8th feudal baron of Burford. He was knighted in 1497. He was born the son of Sir Edmund Cornwall of Burford, Shropshire. He succeeded his father in 1489, was knighted at the Battle of Blackheath in 1497, and made a knight banneret in 1513. He was appointed High Sheriff of Herefordshire for 1502–03 and 1514–15 and High Sheriff of Shropshire for 1505–06, 1515–16, 1519–20 and 1531–32. He represented Shropshire at the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520. He was a Member (MP) of the Parliament of England for Shropshire in 1529. He married Anne Corbet, the daughter of Sir Richard Corbet of Moreton Corbet; they had two sons and three daughters. The other son was Richard Cornwall (1493-1569), MP, who succeeded his father as ninth Baron of Burford in 1537. He married Jane Wogan, the daughter of Sir Henry Wogan of Wiston, Pembrokeshire and died in 1569 and was buried at Burford. Wikipedia: Richard, Earl of Cornwall, brother of Henry III, had several documented out-of-wedlock children. One of Richard's mistresses was Joan de Vautort, widow of Ralph de Vautort (d.1267), feudal baron of Harberton, Devon and Trematon, Cornwall. Joan later married Sir Alexander Okeston, lord of the manor of Modbury in Devon, a part of the Vautorts' feudal barony of Harberton that had been granted him by Roger de Vautort. Joan bore Alexander a son and heir, Sir James Okeston. By Joan de Vautort or other mistresses, the Earl of Cornwall had at least three sons and a daughter as follows:
A very fine and rare Tudor carved wood monument to Edmund Cornwall who died in 1508 aged only 20, one of about a hundred of these wooden medieval sculptures left in England. He is believed to have been killed in a tourney. Within St Mary's Church, Burford, are many fine effigies of the Cornwall family, who succeeded the Mortimers. Listed building text[1]:
