I looked at the old Hugh Wallis Site for Hoyland & Wath as your tree on Ancestry indicated those two areas I and could not find a birth or marriage for any Eyre's.

I dont know that area very well so wonder if Rawmarsh or Wombwell might bear fruit.

Was one of the children Martha went to live with called Sarah Eyre? If so in Wentworth there is a burial of a Sarah Eyre aged 25 on 25 Apr 1852 living in Stubbin at the time. Is this yours? John

Hi Elaine
Thanks for that I have just got Rawmarsh BMD I have found a William Eyre born 15 Jan 1790 - died 22 Oct 1848 Alderthwaite of Typhus age 61 yrs & buried in the Eyre family grave Wentworth Father of William was a William Eyre born 11 April 1753-1785 Rawmarsh he was a (Gardener).So that ties in as my family came from Rotherham & Rawmarsh area.

I have not found any marriage on William Eyre & Martha in Rawmarsh I am waiting for BMD,s for Rotherham Parish Church to see if the marriage was done there.
I also like you went on Hugh Wallis for BMD for Wentworth & Hoyland.I found nothing.

William & Martha had 7 children

William born 1815-died 27 Dec 1842 age 27 yrs Hoyland buried Wentworth also William,s daughter Fanny born 1842 died 7 Feb 1843 Hoyland buried Wentworth in the Eyre family grave in the old church yard

Thomas 1819

Mark 1820-died 27 April 1842 Hoyland buried Wentworth in the Eyre family grave in the old church yard

These 4 children I am trying to find out where they were born Thomas & John in 1851 were living in Hallam Sheffield

Sarah Ann 6 April 1828 Alderthwaite bapt in Wentworth died 25 April 1852 Stubbin

Edwin 2 Aug 1829 Alderthwaite bapt Wentworth (Puddler in Iron Works)

Henry 1 April 1832 Alderwaite bapt Wentworth (Puddler in Iron Works)

Charles 24 May 1835 Aldertwaite bapt Wentworth -1937 Kimberworth Rotherham (my 2x gr-grandfather) (Puddler in Iron Works)

Hi John
Yes Sarah you found in Stubbin is my relative .She was buried in the Eyre family grave Wentworth old church yard with her father William & 2 brothers William & Mark
I have found the birth of William born 15 Jan 1790 in Rawmarsh but no marriage in Rawmarsh for William & Martha so the search for their marriage goes on.
I am waiting for the BMD of Rotherham Parish Church to see if I have any luck there.

Thanks Jenny
