Benjamin seems to have found 11 children between 1861 and 1871

but found Mira Chavasse Wyers , Samuel Chavasse Wyers , Arthur Benjamin Wyers registerd
so must have fathered these before marriage to Sarah Wyers ( not Myers as above)
Rest registered as Chavasse

can anyone find Sarah before marriage ? I believe she is Wyer or Wyres or Wyers

There is this one,
1851. Ettingshall, Sedgey.
Edward Wyer 50. Miner.
Mary Wyer 50.
Sarah Wyer 19. Dau.
Maryann Wyer 17. Dau.
William Wyer 23. Son.
Thomas Wyer 15. Son.
William Shipley 50. Lodger. West Bromwich.

Others born Sedgley.

Extracted,
SARAH WYERS.
Birth: 20 MAY 1832.
Christening: 10 JUN 1832. Providence Baptist, Coseley, Stafford
Parents:
EDWARD WYERS.
MARY.

Found Sarah after death of Benjamin and children use Chavasse surname not Wyers after 1871 and upto 1911

Thanks Jimmy that looks good
but 1861 would be useful

Well done Jimmy
It would appear Sarah is using Chavasse surname before marriage and W. is Wyers

Births Jun 1859.
CHAVASSE Walter. Dudley. 6c. 84.

Births Dec 1860.
CHAVASSE Thomas. Dudley. 6c. 93.

Nl, normal protocol is to use registered surname but half children are registered Chavasse Wyers and then use Chavasse
and rest of children are registered Chavasse
I will use Chavasse with note reference children registered Chavasse Wyers if that is alright
