    Hello,

    My name is Nancy Hill and my gr-grandfather, George Redman, =
emigrated from Wedmore to Dubuque, Iowa in 1852.  He was a farmer in the =
Dyersville, Iowa area.  He married a woman named Jane Bailey in =
Dyersville.  She died leaving him with small children.  He returned to =
England and married Louisa Jane Fear, from Mark, Somerset, England, in =
1869.  They lived in the Dyersville, Iowa area until 1872 when they =
relocated to Decatur County, Iowa in the southern part of the state.  He =
died in 1887.  After his death, Louisa Jane married Anthony Cox, also of =
Somerset, England in Decatur County, Iowa.  They lived together until =
his death in 1914.  We also have a Dyersville, Iowa connection.  I've =
been trying to figure out why so many Somerset people settled there.

      Dear John Hayward,

      I was delighted to have more on Hester Tyley's ancestry!  Thank =
you for getting in touch with me.  It makes it  interesting  to know =
that the wife of William Tyley was Susannah Gibbs as there were Gibbs =
who went to Dyersville IA with members of the Dyer family about 1849..

      Dyersville is in DubuqueCounty IA, on the Maquoteka River, 40 =
miles west of Dubuque City. Farley IA is about 10 miles to the southeast =
of Dyersville.  James Dyer founded Dyersville and Manchester, seat of =
Delaware County, another 30 miles to the west of Dyersville.

      There was a Paul Tyley, ae 28 who came to Dyersville with James =
Dyer Sr., and Hester Tyley Dyer his wife in 1849.  They sailed on the =
Sarah Sands, a steamship out of Liverpool and arrived in NYC on 2 may =
1849.  John Dyer who married Hester Tyley was also on this ship: this =
Hester Dyer was the daughter of John and Hannah Tyley.  Enclosed as an =
attachment are my notes on this family, which may be of interest (and =
which surely need editing!)

      Thank you for your email. =20

      Very sincerely,

      Mary M. Thacher

        Whoopee

        Hello cousin Mary

        I, and my cousin Tim Curtin in Canberra, Australia are 3rd great =
nephews and 2nd cousins, 6 times removed of Hester Tyley, baptised 4th =
June 1792 and daughter of William and Susanna Tyley, late Gibbs.

        Look at the family on rootsweb and search for Hester Tyley, born =
1792 and you should find her on my site.

        Then please come back to me and I can send you much more via =
GEDCOM and no doubt you will reciprocate.

        Where abouts is Dyersville? There really should be a Wedmore =
descendants club in Iowa.

        Best wishes

        John V Hayward
        in The Heritage Coast, Suffolk, England.

          I am hoping that the letter I sent earlier from the Polders of =
Dyersville will appear on the mailing lists.  If you had trouble =
downloading it, do let me know and I will send you a copy snail mail.

          Meanwhile I hope that someone can help me to find the name of =
the mother of James M. Dyer, founder of Dyersville.  His mother was =
named Mary, she was the first wife of James Dyer of Burrington and =
Yatton, they married before 11 June 1814 when their first son, John Dyer =
was baptised in Yatton.  I have found no marriage record for this =
couple.  Mary --- Dyer died in Yatton and was buried on 28 may 1823 at =
the age of 28.  James M. Dyer was born in 1820.  They had five children, =
one of whom died young.

          James Dyer was of Banwell when he married his second wife, =
Jane Harden, on 11 may 1824.  They had three children.  By the time she =
died before 28 february 1831 when she was buried in Yatton, she was of =
Wedmore and 38 years old.

          James Dyer married on 28 december 1831 Hester Tyley of =
Wedmore, the daughter of William Tyley.  She emigrated with him to Iowa =
and by the time she died in 1883, they had never been apart since they =
were married!  James Sr. died in 1884 in Dubuque, having outlived his =
son James M. by 20 years.

          Your mailroom is full of interesting information!  =
Congratulations on the website!

          Best wishes,  Mary M. Thacher
          Great great granddaughter of James M. Dyer
