208"Shrewsbury church was already standing in 101, when its records begin. One of its early vestrymen was Col. Edward Blay, who in 1709 gave to the parish two acres of ground, where the present (in the year of publication, 1908) edifice stands, which was added to later by the munificence of his great-grandson, Dr. William Blay Tilden. This churchyard is now beautifully laid out with walks and shrubbery. It contains many old graves."
