Thrale/Thrall history
Church of Corpus Christi, Tremeirchion, Flintshire, Wales
Tree: UK Thrale family
Notes:
After Hester Lynch Thrale née Salusbury and Gabriel Piozzi built Brynbella and took residence in 1792, they improved the scandalous state of the family church of the Salusbury family. They replastered the walls and repaired the windows, pews and pulpit.
On 17 September 1803, Hester Lynch Thrale wrote in Thraliana …
A new vault has been constructed under the Altar at Dymerchion for his and my last cold Residence, & narrow Apartment—Poor dear old Lucy Salusbury my admirable Progenetrix & Mother to my Father Was found crumbling in Dust; her Skull only whole, & the Black Ribbon pinned round it, that I suppose bound her head in its last Agony —There was no Act then extant for burying in Woollen. My Father being wrapt in Lead was easily discerned from his Brothers, & dear Mama—as he called her to the Last—They had never found Money to make themselves a Vault, so their poor Bones have been gathered up now by Mr Piozzi, and placed decently in our new Repository, where ours will shortly accompany them no doubt: to the great Joy of all my Daughters who really have now waited my Death so long—They are justified in their Impatience. New Pulpit Cloths—new Reading Desk Bible & Surplices—& a new Brass Chandelier—in Lieu of a Wooden one—are among my present Master’s Donations—beside Slating & Glazing & painting & Whitewashing: & what our Curate Mr Roberts prefers to all—Enlarging his little Church in the Gallery-Part—& we will put up the old curious Cross wch some fools pulled away 40 Years ago— & make all smart and handsome.Address : Latitude: 53.24554, Longitude: -3.37737
