... A sumptuous monument was erected on the spot to John and Joan Younge memory. This monument stood on the site of the interment until 1861, when, on the remodelling of the cathedral, it was pulled down, and the broken
fragments are now lying in a room on the east end of the cloister. It consisted of an altar tomb with a canopy supported by black marble columns. Upon the slab lay the recumbent effigy of Dame Joan, represented with her hands raised in the attitude of prayer. She is dressed in the costume of a lady of the period, wearing a large ruff, a Mary Stewart bonnet, and a stiff bodice, all painted in their proper colours, the head resting on two cushions set diagonally. The upper part of the effigy may now be seen in the heap of rubbish above referred to, and in front were two knights in armour, doubtless representing her two husbands, kneeling at a faldstool, and beneath, on the front of the monument, were the figures of her children, four sons and four daughters kneeling at desks. This inscription is : -
" Here lyeth the bodies of Sir John Yovng, Knight, and Dame Joane his wife. By him she had issue, Sir Robert, Jane and Margaret. She was firste marryed to Sir Giles Straingewayes, Knight, By whome she had yssue, John, Edward,
George, Nicholas, Ann, and Elizabeth. She was daughter of John Wadham Esqvier, and shee departed this mortall lyfe,
the 14th of June 1603 aged 70 yeares."
There are nine children named in the inscription, but as eight only are figured on the monument, perhaps one of the sons died in childhood.
'daughter" Lady Eliabeth Berkeley?
