Sir Edward Lewis was buried at Edingdon in 1630. On the south 

 side of the chancel there is a very large monument to his memory; 

 over it a shield of his arms impaling those of Sackville. Lady 

 Ann Beauchamp resided at Edingdon. Her hospitalities are alluded 

 to by Fuller, the Church historian (see p. 254 above), and by Aubrey, 1 

 She was buried at Edingdon. In the Church is this inscription on 

 a brass plate : — 



" Here lyeth the body of the Right Hon ble Anne Lady Beauchamp who deceased 

 the 25 th of Septf A.D. 1664." 



Richard Lewis, Esq., the son, was of Edingdon, 1670, and probably 

 lived there until about 1694, when he purchased the Corsham estate. 

 He was buried at Corsham in 1706.
