Hello
the name PYATT is linked in a couple of instances with the SHELLEY family that I'm researching - I'm very certain that both families are related.
The first example involves a Mary Pyatt (a widow. Her husband's name was Joseph Pyatt):
I have a George Shelley (b 1853, in Stone, Staffordshire) on a 1871 census (for High Street, Stone) with a Mary Pyatt. Mary is widowed, 44, occupation: Grocer, from Fenton, Staffordshire. Also listed are her children: Lydia Ellen Pyatt, Charlotte Mary Pyatt, Frederick James Pyatt, Florence Elizabeth Pyatt, and Alice Jane Pyatt).
George, on the same census, is a Servant, unmarried, 18, occupation: Grocer's Assistant, born in Staffordshire, Stone.
But I'm sure that George is related to the Pyatts, because his grandmother's name was Sarah Pyatt. Sarah married Robert Shelley in 1816 in Sandon, Staffordshire.
Also, George's father Robert Shelley jnr (Sarah Shelley's, nee Pyatt, son) b. 1816, is on a 1841 census with what looks to be his aunt Mary Pyatt, age 60, Chapel Street, Stone, Staffordshire. Robert is age 20, occupation: joiner, from Staffordshire.
If I could trace back far enough, and find out Joseph Pyatt's parents, even grandparents, I'd find out how he and Sarah Shelley (nee Pyatt) are linked.
Does anyone out there have a connection?
Regards
Rachel Shelley
