The old family of Spateman, of Road Nook, in this parish, 

 were interred in the chancel, but as is too often the case during 

 the process of church restoration, their memorial slabs were 

 removed into the churchyard at the rebuilding of the chancel 

 about fifty years ago. One lies at the entrance of the chancel or 

 priest's door. Another at the east end is thus inscribed: — 



" SARAH 



" LATE WIFE OF 



"GEORGE CLERK GEXT 



" OF CHESTERFIELD & 



"daughter of J no. 



"spateman, ESQ. 



"died 8 aprill 1717 



" aged 49 YEARS. 



Another contiguous memorial commemorates John Clarke, 

 who died February loth, 1724, aged 85 years, and Elizabeth 

 Clarke, who died September 5th, 1724, aged 78. With these 

 were undoubtedly connected " Mr. John Clark, wine merchant of 

 Kingston upon Thames in the county of Surrey. Buried July 23, 

 1742." (Affidavit from Mr. Cartwright, Rector of Matlock.)
