The Wyer's of Nottingham 1703 to 2007

I have been researching my family tree for approximately 5 years now and all information has been gathered with the help of my family and help from my local library and archives.
Also from people on look up exchanges and members of genes connected (friends reunited)many thanks to David Hawkes without whose help with the Cowdell part of the family tree i would not have completed so much.
I have spent Many hours at the local library and archives plus hour after hour on the internet checking and double checking all the information is correct.
