6. | Christopher RAWSON was born in 1474 in Yorkshire, England (son of Richard RAWSON and Isabella CRAFORD); died on 2 Oct 1518 in London, England; was buried in All Hallows by the Tower Church, London, England. Other Events and Attributes:
- Occupation: Merchant of London, dealer in staple of Calais
Notes:
Name:
Christopher, center, and his two wives. The brass banners show what each is saying. The wife (possibly Agnes) on L: 'Libra nos' (Deliver us). The wife on R: 'Salva nos' (Save us)-- this banner destroyed in WWII. and Christopher: Iustifica nos, 0 beata Trinitas (O Blessed Trinity, Justify us). The 'Justify us' wording is very unusual (only found on brass for a peer of Christopher's, a mayor of London buried a block away at St. Olave's, interestingly when Christopher's brother Richard was vicar there), and from a theological perspective, a very early progressive statement, but vague enough to escape Queen Mary's Catholic wrath later, amazing it has survived these 498 years. Source: p.847, The Romance of an Ancient City Church, by A.J. Mason in THE NINETEENTH CENTURY: A Monthly Review Edited by James Knowles VOL. XLIII JANUARY-JUNE 1808 Sampson Low, Marston & Company (Limited) St. Dunstan?s House, Fetter Lane, Fleet Street, E.C. London, 1898 The brass wording at bottom was vandalized during Henry VIII's time by Thomas Cromwell's men, to remove Catholic language, note upper L and lower R has been hammered out. The yellow are burn marks from London bombings of WWII, which destroyed the church building but this brass survived. Christopher's body was directed to be buried 'in the chapel of our blessed lady' (referring to a painting of the Virgin, for which south chapel named) . After WWII the church was completely rebuilt and it appears the brass was moved onto new stones, now within the front altar's roped off area. The volunteers of the church during a 2011 visit were not familiar with Christopher or his brass, he is not mentioned in the church literature. Unlike other brasses in the church, this one, unfortunately, does not have a mould to make rubbings from.
