  WYBURN - The Conveyance of the property of Job Wyburn (1756-1833) This history tells of a property, located in Creech Saint Michael, Somerset, England. It was the home of Job Wyburn, the elder, (1756-1833). Job willed this property to his wife, Sarah Dicker Wyburn (1759-1838)and their son, Job Wyburn (1806-1892). It documents the legal work that had to be completed so that Job, the younger's, direct, living heirs could deed this property to William Durman in 1893.

Since George was not living with his family in Bridgwater, perhaps this was he living with the Lawrences. What makes this arguement compelling is that in 1871, Ann Wyburn, and her son, James were living with the widow, Ann Lawrence, in Creech St Michael [S262] 1851 England Census, St. Mary Magdeline Parish, Taunton, Somerset, England.
