Hi Kate, Their children are listed on IGI The best way to find them is to go to :- http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers(.)htm#PageTitle remove brackets Then click on skip and go to country selection menu Click England then Shropshire Click B for Broseley Click on Saint Leonard 1775-1812 Enter Dyas in surname box and click on submit query There are 5 results - the first 4 belong to Samuel and Elizabeth Hope this helps. You can also find them on the ordinary familysearch site but it is more long winded as you can't search for particular town Cheers Clare
