The Altar Tomb Of John Kenn 1593

In the north wall of the chancel in St. Andrew's Church in Clevedon, England, under a plain pointed arch, is the altar tomb of John Ken of Clevedon who died 1593. Engraved on the top of the altar tomb reads "Here resteth the bodye of Joh Kenn, of Clyvedon, the sonne of Joh Kenn, of Kenn, esquire, who deceased the 12th day of Aprill, in the yeare of our Lord God MCCCCC. XC. III." His brother Christopher died the same year and was buried at Ken. Resting on top of his altar tomb is a prayer book and a hand made pottery golden brown pitcher.
