The Glanville Memorial
The Glanville Memorial
Said to be one of the best memorials of the period in Devon. I am guessing that the memorial is above where John and Alice were buried (or at least was, when first erected; sometimes these things are moved over the centuries).
It is clear that John was buried in a chancel, since in her will his wife Alice requested 'My body ... the w[hi]ch I desire may receive Christian and decent
buriall in the Chancell of the Church of Tavistocke by John Glanvill my first husband'.

The inscriptions on the Glanville Memorial
Transcription of the plaques with (my - hence rough) translations of the Latin:

The plaque at the top commemorates Judge John Glanville.


"Honoraia sacrum memorium
Johanis Glanvill, unius quoniam
Justiclariorum de communi
Banco: qui merito factus Judex
sumo cum Labore administravit
Justitiam, Justitia conservavit
Pacem. Pace expectavit Mortem
et Morte invenit Requiem 27
die Julii Anno Dom 1600:"
"In honour and sacred memory of
John Glanvill, one of the
Judges of the Common
Bench, who achieved good Judgements
with his work to administer
Justice, Justice preserving
Peace. Peace comes with Death
and he came to the rest of death on 27
day of July in the year of Our Lord 1600"

(it is clear it was first inscribed Auguste and this was then changed to Julii)

That on the bottom left describes his wife:


"Statutum erat hoc Monumentum
Anno Dom. 1615 impensis
Domina Aliciæ Godolphin viduæ,
prius uxoris eiusdem Johis Glanvill
renupta vero Francisco Godolphin
militi, iam etiam defuncto quæ
peperit eidem Johi viro suo 7 liberos
quorum nominæ et connubia
proxima tabula suo ordini
continentur."
"This monument was set up
in the year of Our Lord 1615 at the expence of
Lady Alice Godolphin widow,
first the wife of the same John Glanvill
remarried to Francis Godolphin
knight, also now deceased who
gave birth with the same John to 7 children
Their names and marriages
are contained on the next board."


That on the bottom right lists the children of John and Alice:


"1 Maria defuncta nupta Edwardus
Estcourt ar: postea militi 2 Franciscus
qui duxit in uxorim Elizabetham
filiam Willmi Crymes ar: 3
Dionilia [sic] nupta Thomæ Polwheile ar:
4 Johannes qui duxit in uxorem
Winnifredam filiam Willmi Burcheir
ar 5 Alicia defuncta innupta
6 Johanna nupta Sampsoni
Hele ar 7 Thomas."
"1 Mary, deceased, who was married to Edward
Estcourt Esq. then Knight 2 Francis
who took as wife Elizabeth
daughter of William Crymes Esq. 3
Donilia [Dionisia] married to Thomas Polwhele Esq.
4 John who took as wife
Winifred daughter of William Burcheir
Esq. 5 Alice, deceased, unmarried
6 Johan married to Sampson
Hele Esq. 7 Thomas"

(Thomas's wife, Joanna Calmady, is not named as they did not marry until about 1624, some 9 years after the monument was erected)
