Abstract

In 1590, Sir Edward Stradling (d. 1609) of St Donat’s in the Vale of Glamorgan commissioned three painted panels to commemorate members of his family which now hang on the north wall of the chancel of St Donat’s church. One depicted Sir Edward himself with his wife, Agnes Gage; the second his grandparents, Edward Stradling and Elizabeth Herbert; the final one his great-grandparents, Thomas Stradling (d. 1480) and Jenet Mathew (d. 1534).
