Hi people
I am doing research into my nan's side of the family. My nan Maureen Elizabeth Dyton lived in Agra India during world war 2 married to John Grant Payne. She returned to Nottingham England about 1947-8. My nan appears to have had 3 step brothers, William, Frank and Albert Dyton. Frank and William stayed in India and owned a hotel. From what my aunty knew is that William and Frank may have returned to the UK about 1967 and Albert went to the USA, Im told Albert went to the US as a child as it was common for children to be taken in by another family..for money? My nan was born in 1924 and they were her older brothers, I can't seem to find anything about Frank and William Dyton in the UK, but not sure I have the resources to find anything about a Albert Dyton going to live in the US. I know the Dyton family lived in India for years before hand and have been directed to one record by a helpful chap relating to a Dyton marriage who I can confirm is my nan's father's first marriage from which Albert Dyton was born,
http://www.search.fibis.org/frontis/bin/aps_detail.php?id=387522 but Frank and William who were my nan's full brothers were from a later marriage to Catherine Elizabeth Dyton, she was 67 in 1949 when she sailed back from Bombay to Nottingham to look after my nan.
I also know that Frank and William Dyton were christened in St Patricks Church Agra.
I know this sounds like a bit of a mess but I had to get all the info I know down as it was coming into my head before I start getting mixed up
Any help would be gratefully received
