These are the tombs of the Ball Family. The writing for each stone is on the top of the tombs, however, the writing has worn away and some of the tops are damaged. Recently there have been bronzed grave markers placed with the writing. I have added photos of Mary's marker and a photo of the double marker for her and her spouse.

This is a photo of St Mary's Whitechapel. If you follow the drive around to the side of the church, that is where the Ball Family is laid to rest.

Mary Conway Ball is buried next to her husband, James Ball Gent. Both are inside an above ground vault with concrete covers and the print on the covers has worn down over the years. These bronze gravemarkers are new, and the two markers were actually one. I have photographed each one as separate but will upload a photo of the solid stone. These graves are located south of the church. Cheryl Whittle Photography 2012
