Tombstone to Thomas Humberstone in the churchyard of St Mary's, Knebworth. He died in 1704 aged 86, just four years before another Thomas Humberstone who died in 1708, aged 38. Perhaps Thomas was Thomas' father or grandfather?

Rather extreme image processing to get the skeleton with its hourglass and scythe to show. The monument dates to 1626 but the painted inscription is no longer visible. St Andrew's, Norton, Suffolk. Pentax K-3iii, SMC Pentax-DA* 50-135mm f/2.8 lens.

The monument is to Susanna Holt. Unfortunately, I could not read the date that she died but the HMI volume for the churchyard states 5th September 1773, aged 73. Pentax QS-1, Pentax Q 06 lens.

All Saints' churchyard, Hertford. I couldn't make out the name on this one although with the right light in should be readable. The skull is depicted at an angle coming out the base and as a result isn't as clear as some. Pentax QS-1, Pentax Q 06 telephoto zoom lens.
