To the memory of Margaret wife of John Wilton of the Flatt who departed this life 25/12/1829 age 46 and also the aforesaid John Wilton who died 18/3/1842 age 74 Erected by their children. Further information was gained from the 1821 census of Cavan and the Kilmore parish records.
His fathers name was Roger Wilton and he married a Mary Bell.

In the background can be seen part of Bishop Beadle's crypt. He transcribed the bible into Irish (flash git!!!)
