Thomas Babington of Dethick: Around 1449 he was born to John Babington (age 26) and Isabel Bradbourne (age 22). Before 1476 Thomas Babington of Dethick (age 27) and Editha Fitzherbert (age 18) were married.

He in civilian clothes with a purse (aka scrip aka Gypciere{gypciere}) hanging from his belt.
Dogs chewing at her dress suggests Harpur and Moorecock of Burton on Trent carved the monument.
The chest tomb of exceptional quality with the fifteen weepers under crocketed canopies broadly undamaged. The weepers on the sides are believed to represent Thomas and Editha's children, possibly fourteen, and their respective spouses. Those on the ends appear to be Saints and Angels with the one in the middle possible St Catherine. The chest tomb now abuts the south wall of the chancel meaning only three sides visible.
