It was described
"It is situated near the North-east corner of the Church, and consists of a niche containing the effigies of Jane the daughter of Thomas Muschamp, and wife of Sir Thomas Hunt, kneeling at a fald stool. The pilasters on either side are ornamented with carvings of fruit, flowers, and "emblems of mortality," gilt and coloured; the hands of the figure and the base of the stool are gone, but, with the exception of a few other "impressions of Time," the monument is in a perfect state. Over it are the arms of Hunt. Per pale Argent and Sable, a saltire counterchanged; on a canton of the second, a lion passant gardant of the first; and below, is a shield of lozenge form, probably once ornamented with the arms of Muschamp. The inscription is as follows:
"Lo! Muscha's stock a fruitful braunche did bri'ge
Adorned with vertves fit for lad's bright
Sir Thomas Hunt o' may dayes pleasant springe
Posest ye Fr'we yt was his soules' delight
H's lovly Jane had to sones by Tho's Grim's esq'
And daughters three
With welth and vertues me't for their degre'
Whe' twis vii yeares vi months x days were spent
In wedlock's bond, and loyall love's delight
Novem'r twelfth day then she was content
This world to leave, and give to God his right
Hir 60 three years full, complete and ended,
Hir soule to God, to ear' hir corp' comended.
1604."
D A Briton, writer of the article, describes the monument as "until recently, partly hidden by the gallery; but in the late repairs, a place above it has been appropriated to its reception". However, a few years after this, in 1841, the church was more-or-less described by a fire, so bad that stained glass melted and stone turned to dust.
(It is clear that Briton or at least the Gentlemen's Magazine account missed a line, which I have inserted here, as taken from Allport).
Buried St. Giles’ Church, Camberwell, London, England - Assuming Jane was buried where there was a monument to her memory.
