My wife's great great grandparents were a William YENDALL b 5 March 1805 Creacombe, near S Molton Devon and his wife Ann COLINS b 17 January 1816 Membury, Devon.
They had 4 sons:
John Martyn YENDALL b 1837 Teignmouth, Devon ,
William Colins YENDALLl b 1840 Exeter,
Thomas YENDALL b c1846 Exeter and
Henry YENDALL b c 1848 Exeter

Two of the brothers; William Colins , and Thomas moved with their families to Gateshead Co. Durham during 1872/3 and Henry moved there before 1881.
William Colin's wife was Ann RICHARDS, their children
Sarah Ann b c1859 Exeter,
Louisa Martha born Sept Qtr 1866 in Exeter, and
William Henry born about 1872 in Exeter.
They subsequently had five more children while living in Gateshead.
Thomas b1873,

Agnes b c1878 and
Albert b 1880.

Thomas' wife was a Mary A. ???? , born about 1842 in Alverston, Gloucester.

Joseph YENDALL 1880 all born in Gateshead.
In 1881 William Collin YENDALLl's brother Henry, was living with the family in Gateshead. Both brothers were classed as "Labourers in Iron works"

Louisa Martha YENDALLl and her sister Sarah Ann YENDALL married two VASEY Brothers John VASEY and William Albert VASEY.
The latter being my wife's grandfather

Do any of our Devon listers have any links to the YENDALL S above?
