Hello Lynn,
Did you contact BLARS regarding those wills? & perhaps more importantly have they replied. I meant to add that the Probate Records index has an entry for an Admon for Robert Wyatt ref A 1708/25 but also says "Old Index, Docket missing" which I believe means there was a document but it has since been lost.
In addition there is a will for John Wadmore farmer of Brook End ref 1756/59; he married Mary Wyet on 24 July 1738 who most likely was daughter of Robert & Elizabeth Wyatt baptised at Bolnhurst on 5 Dec 1716. John Wadmore was buried 29 Nov 1756; his wife Mary was buried 21 May 1742, their 3 children were baptised & buried between 1738 & 1741.
Plus.... there's an Admon for Thomas Wyatt, senior, farmer of Thurleigh ref A 1771/18 he was buried 1 June 1771. His son also Thomas Wyatt junior was buried on 16 Sept 1771 & he left a will ref 1771/30. Mary Wyatt widow (of Thomas Wyatt senior) was buried 5 Oct 1777 & leaves a will ref 1777/29.
Thomas Wyatt married Mary Pain at Thurleigh on 27 Feb 1727. His son Thomas Wyatt of Thurleigh married Elizabeth Barnes at Offord D'Arcy, Hunts in 1758 according to the Beds Strays Index. Thomas, senior & Mary baptised 3 children at Thurleigh 1729-1736 while Thomas, junior & Elizabeth baptised 4 children at Thurleigh 1764-1770. Interestingly Bolnhurst has a burial on 29 Jan 1768 of Elizabeth Wyatt, widow (from Offord D'Arcy).... is she the wife (ne Maxey) of Robert Wyatt?
Thus Robert & Ann (ne Ement) Wyatt who married at Northill on 8 Nov 1688 baptised children there... Ann 3 Aug 1689 (she was buried 9 Aug 1689), Robert 4 Aug 1690, John 11 Mar 1692 (he was buried 16 Oct 1693), Ralph 21 Sept 1694, Thomas 6 Dec 1696 & Ann 29 Dec 1698. These then moved to farm at Bolnhurst & Thurleigh. Ann married Thomas Elms (1723), Robert married Elizabeth Maxey (1714) & Ralph married Eleanor Larret (1724) & Thomas married Mary Pain (1727).
** BLARS have details of a marriage settlement dated Apr 1727 between John Harvey and Beatrice Cockayne of Ickwell/Northill which contains "messuages, farms, lands etc. in Bolnhurst ..... in the occupation of Ralph Wyatt...."
Regards John
