Hello Dazey,
Thank you so much for that!! It gives me somewhere to start.
Do you know where I would go for Army records of the Indian Mutiny??, and to find out regiment,etc.?
I'll have a look at the link you sent me now, Cheers Eileen

Thats fine!!!!! good Luck!!!

Hi Julie,
 New to this myself, and as you can see my aunts family name is Doolin, my guess, would be Irish but if one of the other readers see your post, they will most likely be able to give you a proper answer.
If you recieve no more answers to this one, put a new post up saying  'help with roots of name Doolan please' and I'm sure someone will give you better help than me.
good Luck Eileen

Hi Osprey and CaroleW,
Well, I've had a look through the marriage certificates:

Esther and Charles Paddington 1855, both have same address Star str. witnesses are M or W Wyatt and Mary Ann Wyatt .

John and Jane Paddington 1854, again same address Bouverie Str. witnesses are M Wyatt and Mary Porter.

William and Susan St.Marylebone 1864, William living Harford or Hereford Str. and Susan living in Charles Str. witnesses George and Julia King.

Now I've also found, don't know if its relevent but may be missing Mary, as her Father is down as William Robert Wyatt Bricklayer and on 1861 Census is down as being born in St.Austell.
Mary Ann Wyatt and John Edward James (but on 1861 down as Eames) married St.Pancras 12/9/1858
Mary Ann living in Loxton Str. and John at Brook place, witnesses Arthur Ricketts and Elizabeth Aberdeen.

I thought the other William Wyatt 21, may be a cousin as they all seemed to give children the same names then, after family members.

There's also the baptism records of William Roberts Wyatt and Thomas Wyatt in St.Austell, with John and Ann as parents, too, so thats 4 born in Cornwall. This Mary Ann is down as St.Austell Cornwall on the census too, and no sign of an Ellen and I've found no other records for Thomas either.

So I'm getting very confused!!!, unless, there are 2 William Roberts/Robert Wyatts who are both bricklayers, living in the same area of London, both from Cornwall, I suppose its feasible, do you think??
I shall carry on trying to check some of these people out , find out if this Mary is  Married to Mr.James or Mr.Eames, and anything else I can.
Thanks again eita                                                         

Hi carole,
May possibly have found an 1841 Census return for the whole family, though the writing isn't too great as it looks as if its been rewritten over afterwards......probably faded with time.
Its 1841 Hartcliffe & Bedminster Somerset
Wiiliam Wyatt 30 Mason
Mary               30
John                 7
Ester                5
Mary                 3
Ellen                  8 mths ( did wonder if this might be William, (Wllm) and poor writing has made it look like
                                         Ellen or perhaps its just wishful thinking)
It has stated 'Not' born in that County for them, this may tie in with the death you found in Bath, and why William 1840, sometimes has Bath as birthplace.

Maybe the mother comes from Somerset , could this be why William and Mary's marriage isn't in Cornwall records? Do you think???
Sorry I keep bothering you with this, but they just seem to disappear between 1841 (if thats them) and getting married in London in the mid 1850's.

Also wanted to ask if William 1810 and his brother and his Dad, John, were all Masons, would this mean that they belonged to the Masons??
Only I was reading on one of the links that St.Austell had quite a strong Masonic tie and wondered if perhaps that might be a line of enquiry???

Again many Thanks eita
