for lullaby

--------------------------------------------
If I understand correctly, and I'm not sure, your ancestor is another person called Mark John Dyer who lived in the same place.
In my research, I have a Mark John Dyer married to Mary Ann Webb between 1754 and 1921, with children William Francis, John Frederik and Suzanna Charlotte.
I don't know whether that fits. It was on the Ancestry site, but I don't subscribe so I don't have access to the full records.

This may be what you're looking at:
Mark John Dyer married Mary Ann Webb, 17 Nov 1828, Shoreditch, London
Ah, I see, that is from
London, England, Marriages and Banns, *1754-1921*.
Je crois que oui, phicar -- son Mark Dyer ést né ~1800 en Tortola.
lullaby, that is your Mark marying Webb?
In the 1851 census:
Mark John Dyer, coach manufacturer, born c1800 Tortola West Indies, wife Mary Ann, living in Clerkenwell, Middlesex, with children
Susannah 21
Henry 17
William 14
Sarah 4
and married son-in-law William D Hill, 22, retired coach maker -- born in Trinidad West Indies (so Susannah, who is shown as married, was really Susannah Hill)
They seem quite prosperous, lullaby - perhaps not mere carpenters in that generation!
