Earl Stanhope, see 'Notices', remarked of Sir Michael Stanhope of Sudbourne: 'There was once a magnificent monument to him in Sudbourne church, the more magnificent, perhaps, because it was erected in his own lifetime by himself.' [It did not mention his daughter Bridget. He had disinherited and disowned her as a result of a dispute over land she had inherited from her mother.] Here is its text:
'Here resteth, in assured hope to rise in Christ, Sir Michael
