The "late Mrs Darvil" of 19.6.1828 above was Mary née Kingsbury 1770-1817 older sister of William Jameson's wife Sarah, who married Joseph Laurence Darvall in 1798. She was quite likely the Mary Kingsbury witness at Thomas Davy's wedding and the Days and Savills were probably somehow related to the Kingsburys, perhaps through the family of Mordecai Andrews, father of William Kingsbury's wife Mary and grandfather of Mrs Jameson and Mrs Darvall
