NOTES

  1. William buried 15th June 1823 Malew
  2. A death notice for a William Mylrea in 1823 in Malew said he was 61 years, so born about 1762
  3. Only known candidate would be William Mylrea who married to Jane (H)All: Children - Eleanor (1800, Santon), James David (1822 Patrick/Dalby); no sign of births of other children. Presumably this William was born no later than 1780 to have a child in 1800
  4. However, the childrn who are mentioned in the 1823 Will -- William, David, James, Eliza - do not include an Eleanor nor are any of them baptised to William and Jane so this man is unlikely to be the person who married Jane Hall
  5. At this stage, a STRAY
