Research Notes

There is a Wyat wright, son of Robert and Awdry his wife buried at Wicklewood in 1589. This leads to the conclusion that Robert's wife's first name was Awdry and that there was a son Wyat who was born and died and another son called Wyatt baptised after that. it also points tonthe fact that the Wrights were originally from Wicklewood which would explian the bequests in the will to the poor of Wicklewood.
