About Alice Mildmay
From https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=65150335
Alice committed suicide over her unhappy marriage to the old soldier Sir Henry Mildmay. Her crypt in St Margarets is inscribed with a skull indicating a suicide death. Ministers at this chapel have long written of her ghost appearing around the bridge leading to Mildmay Manor that she jumped off of into the creek below and drowned
According to "A Brief Memoir of the Mildmay Family", Herbert A St.John Mildmay, pgs. 30-31:
A canopied monument to Henry consists of him in armour, lying down and leaning on his arm that rests on a pillow. Both of his wives are kneeling before him, Alicia on the left and Amy on the right.
The inscription on the tomb reads: "Here are interred the remains of Henry Mildmay of Graces in Baddow in the county of Essex. He was a soldier in the Irish wars and was there honoured with the degree of Knighthood in the Field. His first wife was Alicia, the daughter of William Harris of Crixie, Knight of the same county, by whom he had 3 daughters, Alice, Mary and Frances. His second wife was Amy, daughter of Brampton Gurdon, Esqre, of Accrington in the county of Suffolk, by whom he had 2 sons, Henry and Walter and one daughter, Elizabeth. He died on Wednesday, the ninth day of October, in the year of our Lord, 1639, aged 61."
