I was very interested to see your message on the Yapps, as I don't come across many of them.
My Great Great grandparents were John Richard Pugh & Elizabeth Yapp. Elizabeth was from Lydbury North, Shropshire, as were her ancestors traced back to 1645. John and Elizabeth married in 1870, Lydham, but had their first 3 children on the Wirral, Cheshire. They then returned to John's hometown of Bishop's Castle for 3 years, where they had 2 more children, before moving north again by 1877, this time in Liverpool.
Elizabeth Yapp was born in 1839 to John Yopp & Martha Thomas, who had married in 1833. Elizabeth's siblings were Eliza, Emma, Hannah, George, John & Richard.
Elizabeth's father, John Yopp, was born 1810. His parents were John (1783) & Nancy
This John, 1783, was son of Thomas & Eleanor
Thomas, 1759, was son of John Yop & Mary Jones
John, 1726, was son of Samuel Yop & Elizabeth Habberly
Samuel, 1700, son of Thomas Yop & Kesia Tipton
Thomas, 1668, son of Francis & Margery
Francis was born about 1645
I would love to hear from anyone who recognises any names here, or who believes they have a link to Lydbury North Yapps/Yopps
