Carmarthenshire / Trooper J Tyson Lloyd d 1917 Henllan Amgoed
« on: Tuesday 18 June 13 16:50 BST (UK) »
HENLLAN WAR MEMORIAL - TROOPER J TYSON LLOYD - DIED 24 MARCH 1917
In Henllan Chapel yard is a large WW1 memorial with five names.
On behalf of a friend I am trying to locate the burial of John Tyson Lloyd who is recorded on the memorial.
TROOPER J TYSON LLOYD WELSH HORSE
GASSED GALIPOLI DIED IN THIS COUNTRY
MAR 24 1917
Would anyone know if he is buried in Henllan Chapel yard and if so where please? I have tried looking but there are so many gravestones I thought someone might actually know.
For those interested Tyson was born in Henllan Amgoed parish and in 1901 was lodging at Henllan Mill with his father and family - his father was shown as a horse breaker.
By 1911 he was working at Caeremlyn Farm and when he enlisted in 1916 was employed by Dr Thomas of Hillside Whitland as a groom.
The Tyson in his name is a family one that goes back many generations.

Bookbox - was wondering if it actually was
Only reason I ask is that he made provision for a niece and nephew - but never mentioned a daughter Lydia Mary who was born in 1845 in St Martin in the Fields.

Thanks Bookbox - you are a star!
That definitely looks like the family doesn't it?
Yes, I was working on the assumption that the niece and nephew were children of a sister who had married a Lucas - and this looks correct. I checked all his nieces and nephews through his wife and nothing fitted.
Great - will add them in and see what more I can find.
Super work.

Thanks very much.
Been looking for the two Lucases on Ancestry but not hit the jackpot yet!

Thanks so much Goldie - our joy at finding the Will turned to shock when we saw it!!
Thanks so much for what you have deciphered. I think the Will was proved in 1848.
His wife was MARY AMELIA (STARTIN). Not sure when the Will was written - he died on January 1848 aged just 38 - having married in 1841 - they had one daughter Lydia (though she disappears after 1851 census) and he later had a son born in 1847 but he had died before the boy was Christened.
Thanks for reading the bit about an Elizabeth - wondered where she fitted in.
Do not know of either nephew and niece William Harrington or Elizabeth Susannah so far so more checking to do! Yes it does look like LUCAS doesn't it - not got any of those either so will have to start digging. Got lots on the Startins but quite sparse so far for the Harringtons.
Once again your help is much appreciated.

Hi - have just bought this Will online but am no good with the fancy handwriting.
I only want the basic details please and thought someone used to ready old handwriting may have more of a clue than me.
His address when he did the Will was No 19 Panton Street Leicester Square.
His friend was Charles Williams of Compton Street Middlesex and George Startin ? Street City of London Sugar ? . (George Startin is presumably his wife's brother who was a sugar merchant in London and lived from 1809-85).
Proved n the 15th April.
