He left for New York City with his daughters, taking refuge in the British garrison. His son Edward had previously arrived there, serving with the British army.²

A large flat limestone slab, #435, marks the grave of Edward Winslow, a descendant of one the first governors of Massachusetts. The stone is now illegible. The inscription below was read in the 1980s, when it was placed on a concrete foundation. Inscription: Sacred to the Memory of EDWARD WINSLOW, ESQ. Who died on the 9th of June, 1784 in the 74th year of his age Descended from a race of ancestors, governors of the ancient colony of Plymouth, he in no instance, degenerated from their loyalty or virtue, but while he filled the first offices became as conspic- uous by public integrity, as he was amiable in the milder shades of private life. Although his fortunes suffered shipwreck in the storm of Civil War, and he forsook his native country from an attachment to his sovereign, neither his cheerful manners nor the calm reward of conscious rectitude forsook him in old age. He died as he lived, beloved by his friends and respected by his enemies.^1,3 Marker, Edward Winslow (1714-1784). Old Burying Ground, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Biographical Note

Walter accompanied William, Duke of Normandy, to England, and fought at the Battle of Hastings on 14 October 1066. The only contemporary historian to name the Companions of William the Conqueror was William of Poitiers, who had lived in William's household.He named 12 men who fought with William, and Robert de Beaumont was one such Companion. A Latin poem attributed to Guy, Bishop of Amiens from 1058 to 1076, describes how near the end of the Battle of Hastings the body of the dying Harold was mutilated by four men, one of whom was Walter Giffard. This incident was ignored by two of the highest authorities of the time, William of Poitiers and the Bayeux Tapestry. Because of the exclusion of this incident by contempories it is generally considered not to have happened.²
