Belonged to Peter Umstead in 1734, and remained in the Umstead family until 1856, when they came into the hands of Lydia Gottshall, who sold them in 1883 to Solomon K. Grimley. Mr. Grimley furnishes the following information: "The Funeral Plates measure 14 7/8 inches in diameter. In olden times people sometimes had to drive five and ten miles to the church and burying place with their dead. It was customary to provide bread, cake and wine on such occasions for the refreshment of those in attendance. The daughter of a principal farmer was selected, who took a large pewter plate, laden with broad and cakes, and stationed herself on the side of the path by which the procession was to pass from the church to the grave. A young man, son of one of the farmers of the first class, held a large plate, upon which was a bottle of wine or whiskey and a wine cup, and took a position opposite the young woman. Each person in passing took a piece of bread or cake from the maiden, and then turned to the other side and took a sip of wine from the cup, which the youth replenished from time to time. My grandmother, Mary Keely, who died in 1848, aged 85 years 10 months and 26 days, told me that she was on one occasion chosen to hold the bread plate, and that it was deemed a great honor to be a Leichenwaerter, or funeral waiter."
