Taken Aug 2000
This is found in the seated area of the church, on the wall near the door.
Note: I was told that this is a replacement of the original.
Also that some of the original names are missing, such as John Priors.

This vestry has been erected in his memory
by his grateful parishoners of this island.
His remains lie beneath this tablet.

Yes, this was found in the back closet, that metal is the furnace!
This wall used to be at the back of the alter with a brass rail around it.

Taken Aug 2000
This is a cabinet in the back part of the church.
Metal plaque says John Foley, who probably donated it.
