The first page of inscriptions is not a genealogical record but a selection of biblical passages and an unattributed quotation from the 17th-century Anglo-Welsh historian James Howell 'in the conduct of human affairs it is a rule that a good conscience hath always within doors enough to reward itself' see Epistolae Ho-Elianae: The Familiar Letters of James Howell 1907 Vol. III p. 3.

Edgar Corrie 1748-1819 prominent Scottish merchant in Liverpool business partner with John Gladstone father of the prime minister from 1787-1801. Corrie was a clandestine abolitionist: he wrote to Lord Hawkesbury in February 1788 with 'a long attack on the conduct of the slave trade in Liverpool' but asked that his name should be concealed from all except the Prime Minister William Pitt as it would 'cause him "irreparable prejudice" in the town if his letter became known' F.
