Hey Tasmania

Just recently the name Dyster has popped up in my tree.. The information I have is of a John Dyster. Born 1768 in Braintree died 1851. I'm sure he would of had other children but I have only written down the one connected with me. Ann Dyster born 1795 in Great Coggeshall Died 1882 in Halstead..

Let me know if any of these names are significant to you :)

Dear Little_Fagg
John Dyster was married to Sarah Hibbs, she came from Kirby-le-Soken, Essex.   On one website it states they had 10 children.   Thomas Dyster their son born 1812 was convicted of house breaking in Chelmsford . He was aged 14 .  He was sent to the hulks and was eventually transported to Diemen's Land Australia in 1827.   Thomas Dyster's daughter Mary Alice married Walter Edward Halls in 1883 in Burra South Australia.   He was my Gt. Gt. Uncle. 

Merryman

Tasmania was last online in 2012 ;D
And, according to their profile, their email address is no longer working.
(So, they won't be getting notifications)

Ever linked the Halstead Beckwiths to the Coggeshall or Braxted ones?
