On the chancel wall is a tablet inscribed:
'This chancel was beautified with a new Alter piece and paved with stone, 1756, by Barrington Horsmanden, Esq.'
Within the chancel rails is a stone with the following inscription:
'In this vault is deposited the body of Horsmanden, Esq., formerly one of the sworn clerks of the High Court of Chancery. A bad state of health obliged him to quit business some time before his death. He was a man of Indefatigable Labour and Industry in his Profession whereby he gained many friends and Great Practice. He acquired an easy fortune with lasting credit, which he disposed of among his relations. He died on the 28th day of December, 1756, in the 61st year of
his age. Here also are the remains of Warham Horsmanden, Esq., & Susanna his wife who died in 1691, aged 64 years. Also of Susannah wife of Daniel Horsmanden.'" The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Volume XV
