Many thanks for that listing Ernest. Its most interesting but I found it very confusing. I would be very grateful for that info in a Gedcom file and then I might better understand the many links. How on earth did it happen that you made the mistake of stating that Sarah Wyke had no children by William Irish!!? Here's one of my own dodgy trees, this one for Byam and it includes a Thomas Tudor Tucker RN as I see you have an interest in Tudors. with kind regards, David ========================================== Rev Lawrence Byam | Rev Edward Byam | | William Byam (9 Mar 1623 - ) & Dorothy Knollys | | | Lieut-Colonel Willoughby Byam ( - 1690) & Rebecca Winthrop | | | | Colonel William Byam & Mary Yeamans | | | | | Edward Byam (1712 - 1768) & Lydia Byam ( - 5 Dec 1767) | | | | | | William Byam ( - 1779) & Martha Rogers | | | | | | | Edward Byam (1767 - 1795) & Christiana Matilda Ryan (1769 - 20 Jan 1847) | | | | | | | | Sir William Byam & Martha Rogers | | | | | | | | | Edward Gamage Byam (30 Jun 1823 - ) | | | | | | | | | William Byam (10 Feb 1826 - ) | | | | | | | | | Lydia Byam & Francis Shand | | | | | | | | | Martha Anne Byam | | | | | | | | | Elizabeth Christiana Byam | | | | | | | | Lt-General Edward Byam (1794 - bef 1878) & Elizabeth Augusta Temple (1802 - 15 Apr 1878) | | | | | | | | | Willoughby Temple Byam (1832 - ) | | | | | | | | | Henry Edward Byam (1835 - ) | | | | | | | | | Arthur Merick Byam | | | | | | | | | Edward Willoughby Grenville Byam | | | | | | | | | Matilda Augusta Anne Byam | | | | | | | | | Agnes welthian Byam | | | | | | | | | Maria Christiana Elizabeth Byam | | | | | | | | | Augusta Temple Byam | | | | | | | | | Ellen Gladys Byam | | | | | | | Rev Samuel Byam D D (2 Sep 1769 - 24 Apr 1816) & Jane Akers Welsh ( - 26 Nov 1847) | | | | | | | | William George Munton Byam | | | | | | | | Capt Adolphus Elizabeth Byam | | | | | | | | Henry James Byam | | | | | | | | Cornelia Rachel Byam & Baron Augustus De Firkes | | | | | | | | Augusta Louisa Anne Byam & Frederick Shallet Lomax | | | | | | | Lydia Byam (abt 1772 - ) | | | | | | Lydia Byam (1752 - ) | | | | | John Sampson Byam ( - 1766) | | | | | Rev Dr Henry Byam D D ( - 1760) | | | | | | Anne Byam | | | | | | Hester Byam & Anthony Manton | | | | | | Mary Gunthorpe Byam & Colonel William Dundas | | | | | Mary Byam & Warner Tempest | | | | | | Henrietta Tempest & Marmaduke Dayrell | | | | | Anne Byam & Crooke Thomas | | | | | Rebecca Byam & Thomas Freeman | | | | | | Arthur Freeman ( - 1780) & Margaret Thomas | | | | | | | Inigo Freeman \ Thomas* & Charlotte Peirce | | | | | | | Inigo Freeman \ Thomas* & Frances Middleton | | | | | | | Lieut-Colonel George Thomas Freeman ( - Nov 1827) | | | | | | Thomas Freeman ( - 1815) & Anne Wickham | | | | | | | Thomas Freeman & Christiana Ffry ( - 23 Feb 1808) | | | | | | | | Thomas Inigo Wickman Freeman | | | | | | | Arthur Freeman | | | | | | Byam Freeman & Anne Watkins | | | | | | | Harriet Freeman & Thomas Oliver | | | | | | | | Alice Oliver & Captain Haynes R N | | | | | | | | Emily Oliver & Elton | | | | | | Robert Freeman | | | | | | Charles Freeman | | | | | | Elizabeth Freeman | | | | | | Rebecca Freeman | | | | | | Charlotte Freeman & Major-General Sherrington Talbot (1699 - ) | | | | | | | Indiana Talbot (28 Jul 1751 - ) & Lewis Peake Garland ( - 1780) | | | | | | | | Nathaniel Garland | | | | | | | | Peake Garland | | | | | | Mary Freeman | | | | Samuel Byam | | | | | Samuel Byam | | | | | | Phillis Byam* ( - Feb 1829) & Charlton Wollaton | | | | | | Phillis Byam* ( - Feb 1829) & James Frampton (Oct 1711 - 28 Oct 1784) | | | | | | | James Frampton (4 Sep 1769 - ) & Harriott Fox-Strangways ( - 6 Aug 1844) | | | | | | | | James Frampton | | | | | | | | Henry Frampton | | | | | | | | William Charlton Frampton | | | | | | | | Harriet Georgiana Frampton | | | | | | | | Louisa Charlotte Frampton | | | | | | | Mary Frampton | | | Brigadier General Edward Byam* (9 Jan 1662 - 4 Dec 1741) & Sarah or Mary Winthrop | | | | Edward Byam | | | | Mary Byam & Colonel Thomas Williams | | | Brigadier General Edward Byam* (9 Jan 1662 - 4 Dec 1741) & Lydia Thomas ( - 2 Dec 1744) | | | | George Byam (24 Apr 1704 - before 21 Feb 1734/1735) & Henrietta Maria Frye | | | | | George Byam ( - Nov 1779) & Louisa Bathurst ( - 1779) | | | | | | Selina Byam (1760 - 3 Jul 1846) & Rev.
