DescriptionFamily register is divided into four columns by alternating Corinthian and Doric columns connected by arches. The Corinthian columns are wreathed with garlands of flowers. The arches at the top are occupied by vignettes depicting a man, woman, boy, and girl standing outdoors; a woman kneeling beside a cradle while a small boy looks on; a minister marrying a man and a woman while a cherub hovers overhead; and a woman holding a book and leaning on an anchor, beside a monument inscribed "I / know that / my / Redeemer / liveth." A willow tree is at the right; gravestones are in the left background.
