Thank you very much for your reply - you have given me more avenues to search for information on the Reverend Richard Huggard and his family.  I am certain that my friend who is a direct descendant of the Reverend Huggard will be pleased with your reply, and the fact that you take an interest both in his life and work and also in his final resting place.  Unfortunately both she and I live a considerable distance from his grave (we both live in Scotland), but it might be possible for her to visit at some point.  I will let her see your reply and will certainly get back to  you.

many thanks again

Hi

I realise it is some time since the original post in this thread, but I thought I would give it a go.  I am researching the Reverend Richard Huggard for a friend of mine - she is a direct descendant of his.  I could act as a go between for her if you still had the objects you found. 

Richard Huggard lost two of his sons in the First World War.  He was a minister in Ireland before he moved with his family to England, and I have found some newspaper articles which record how well liked he was by his parishioners. 

Even if you no longer have the object you found, I am sure my friend would appreciate a description of what it was.

Thanks

Liz
