Wife of Thomas Aveling (1801-1835) and mother of Robert, James, Mary Ann and Thomas.
Her son, Thomas Aveling, is also buried here with his wife, Sarah Lake.
He was a well known Industrialist, based in Strood.
A pioneer manufacturer of steam traction engines, for agricultural, civil and military use. His machinery enabled farmers to increase production. Henry Pye of St. Mary Hoo, was probably the first to take advantage of this development, which revolutionised agriculture in the 19th century, to plough and drain the North Kent Marshes. (Credit to Kent Archeology for this information).
Ann(e)'s second husband was Reverend John D'urban (dates around 1797-1865). He was from Deal, Kent.
