1st Earl of Uxbridge (second creation)
"MARCH XXV, MDCCCXII / Buried in the Family Vault, the Right Ho- / nourable Henry Bayley [sic] PAGET, / Earl of Uxbridge, Lord Paget of / Beaudesart, Lord Lieutenant of / the County of Stafford &c &c Aged 67" - burial register for The Close, Lichfield
A. B. Clifton writing in 1900 in The Cathedral Church of Lichfield, states that the Paget family vault is beneath The Sacristy, originally the Chapel of St Chad's Head:
"The lower storey was originally the sacristy: it is now used as the consistory court. Against the west wall are some of the old Jacobean stalls, which were put into the choir in Bishop Hacket's time; while in the corner are let into the floor some of the old tiles and slabs of cannel coal with which, and alabaster, the cathedral was at one time paved. The windows are filled with Perpendicular tracery, replacing the old Early English windows. Underneath, and reached by a staircase in the south-east turret, now closed, is a vault, at present used as the burial vault of the Paget family. Probably it was once a dungeon."
