Firefighter Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Hi all I am new on this site so i could do with some help.Any assistance greatly appreciated. I am looking for any info on the names 'Mayos' and 'Dyson' in the Sheffield area.Specifically i am looking for Margaret Dyson (Daughter of John Dyson and Lydia Dyson (nee Mayos) of 80 Weston street,Sheffield. Margaret,if indeed she is still alive may know who my Grandads father was. The Dysons ran a small shop in Weston street as far as i know. Again,any help greatly appreciated.

Firefighter Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Mayor? Is that right mate? Mary Jane nee Oates is my great great grandmother.She married Stainfield after my great great grandfather died. She is the one who brought up my grandfather.

retep Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Have a look yourself on the 1901, they are at the same address as Stainfield, transcribing on the 1901 is a bit abysmal, always search using alternatives, eg. first name only-spelling variant's-first three letters and a * of a surname you may get lucky these are the only Mayos on the 1861 index 1861 MAYOS George 2 YKS Sheffield 3470-46B MAYOS John 31 HEF Hereford 3470-46B MAYOS John E 10m YKS Sheffield 3470-46B MAYOS Martha 31 HEF Forden 3470-46B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefighter Posted April 6, 2005 Author Share Posted April 6, 2005 Thanks Retep The list of Mayor are the children of Mary Jane Mayos(nee Oates) Must be the transcrbing error.Perhaps 's' looked like 'r'? Florence Mayos was my grandfathers mother. You have been very helpful. Is the address 612 Chesterfield Rd? Or Weston Street? Regards Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
