St Saviour, Dartmouth, Devon
A brass rubbing of the brass placed in the chancel, but locked away, of John Hawley II and his two wives.
He was born in 1340 the son of John Hawley I in the village of Allaleigh. He was a seaman and ship owner who trade mainly in wine. During these days he was also something of a pirate and thought nothing of re-leaving spanish vessels of their cargo and storing it in his warehouse on Fosse street. He was mayor of Dartmouth fourteen times and an MP for twenty years. He would have meet Chaucer when he visited Dartmouth in 1373 and may give credit to the idea that the Shipman in the Canterbury Tales may heave been based on Hawley.
He died in December 1408 and is buried under the chancel with his wives.
On his right is his first wife, Joanna, by whom he had a son. She died in 1394. He later married Alicia (on the left), the daughter of the famous and very wealthy Cornish family Tresilian. She died in 1403.
