Notizen zu dieser Person
In 1556 she married Sir John Wyndham of Orchard Wyndham and a year later was taken ill and thought to have died. She was buried in the Wyndhamfamily vault in St Decuman’s church at Watchet, Somerset and that samenight a covetous sexton opened her coffin in order to remove her ringsand cut one of her fingers in the process. She had in fact fallen intosome sort of cataleptic trance, and was now awakened by the pain and rose from her coffin. The sexton fled leaving his lantern behind him; and with its aid she made her way home across the fields to her astoundedfamily. (Wikipedia)
