Kia ora

I am trying to find the birth and death of Dorothy Wyver.  I am a member of SFHG and have checked the on-line data base and the marriage disc I have, but I cannot find the name Wyver anywhere, I thought she may have married and changed her name. I have also looked for Voyce and Gye and tried to find a relevant marriage of them and Wyllm Page to no avail.

Dorothy Wyver gave birth to a bastard child by John Rowland, William Wyver Rowland 20 September 1556 Horsham Parish Church, Sussex.

The birth entry on the Sussex Family history site has
G/F Wyllm Joyce & Wyllm  Page   G/M  Agnes Gye.

Hi,
I looked for WEAVER on the SMI disc as that looks to me how it is spelled nowadays and came up with this.

Dorothy WEVER m John DONGETT 5 May 1561 Horsham, Sussex.

That might help you find a death date.
