William James Mingay born1752, gave this Chandelier to St Peter's Church in Thetford, Norfolk, England. It is made of brass with 20 candle holders, and is engraved with the words:

"Ex Don0 Jacobi Mingay Armigeri Domino Regi E Consilaris Anno Domini 1791"

"Presented by James Mingay Armour Bearer To Our Lord The King Privy Counsellor."

It was sold to St. John's Church, Winchester for £10 and the carrier was paid 3 shillings and 6 pence, in about 1810. Winchester have a record of this transaction.  Apparently the candles are lit every Christmas and New Years Eve!
