Mourning ring
The inscribed rear of a mourning ring (the front having a small piece of the subjects hair mounted in it) for Ann Hodgson, who died 12th May 1826, aged 54. The ring is for a small finger, being about 19mm (3/4") internal diameter. The ring has come to us from my wife's side of the family, but as yet I have been unable to trace the link.
