If you happen to be in Rye church again, would you mind taking a photo of the tomb of James Benn in the great chancel - if it still exists? One of my family (an infant death) is said to be buried near it, and one of his brothers was named after said James Benn, but I know nothing more about this person, and tomb might at least give me dates! The infant died in 1725, so I'd imagine his tomb would date from around then.
