[Bell Historians] All Saints, Newchurch, Isle of Wight - seeking founder of bell cast in 1589

[Catherine and Jonathan Lewis]

Dear All,

I am researching a bell in our tower that was dated 5189 and possibly is linked to a bell in another local church with the same date and similar lettering. I have a tracing of the letters for both bells and suggestions as to the founder but thought I would contact you as well as do some local research.  I do not have access to the towers to determine bell shape however I do have a photograph of the tracing courtesy of a handwritten journal by John Whitehead held by County Records office.

Regards

Cathy Lewis
