---------------------------------------------
Emily and Rhoda Wyburn followed their father and remained staunch and active Methodists. They took over the millinery business previously run by sisters Susannah and Sarah. By 1871 they were trading in London, and shortly after had a shop in prestigious Regent Street. By 1881 they were living at 23 Park Square East, Mayfair, a highly fashionable address adjacent to Regents Park. Around 1891 they purchased a large house known as Hadley Manor, near Barnet (the house no longer exists). They commissioned the Wyburn Memorial that stands in Woolavington churchyard.

Purchased the Monkton Hadley Manor |
- Monken Hadley Parish church of St Mary the Virgin (1668)
Hadley or Monken Hadley adjoins the town of Barnet on the north; one mile north of High Barnet station, on the Edgware and High Barnet Line. According to Lysons and others it owes its name to "its elevated situation, Headleagh signifying in the Saxon a high place." It lies between the Great North Road and the western of the forest tract known as Enfield Chase, and the ley in its designation probably points to it as a clearing in the high forest land. The manor belonged to the Mandevilles till the middle of the 12th century, when it was alienated by Geoffrey de Maneville to the Abbey of Walden - hence the designation Monken (or Monk's) Hadley. After the suppression of religious houses, Hadley manor was given, in 1540, to Thomas Lord Audley, but in 1544 again surrendered it to the king. In 1557 Queen Mary granted it to Sir Thomas Pope: in 1574 it was alienated to William Kympton. It was sold to him in 1582, and remained for a century in the hands of the Hayes family. It has many times changed owners. Monkton-Hadley Manor was purchased in 1890 by Emily and Rhoda Wyburn and in 1934, on Rhoda's death, by East Barnet U.D.C.

Emily's gardener won second place in a rhododendron exhibit. |
- The nineteenth annual exhibition of the Highgate and District Chrysanthemum Society took place recently in the large and well-adapted central hall of the Alexandria Palace. This was the second occasion on which the show had taken place in this well-known North London resort, and the display was an excellent one… The premier class in the incurved section was for six vases of incurved blooms, distinct five blooms of one variety in each vase… Second honors were secured by Mr. A. Jones, gardener to Miss Wyburn, Hadley Manor, Barnet, who had very large blooms, but less even than desired, and lacking the finish generally expected. His Chas. H. Curtiss and Lady Isabel were very fine, however.

The Manor House, Woolavington, Somerset, England [1] |
Local Wesleyan preacher |
- The Wesleyan Chapel was built in 1837. An adjacent schoolroom was added later, on land purchased by Robert Wyburn. He was the owner of the Manor at the time and a Wesleyan Local Preacher. The Sunday School operated from this building, and the Superintendent for over 60 years was George Haggett who died in 1921. After many years of service to the community the Chapel closed in the early 1970s...
Slightly further along Causeway, on the right, is the Manor House, now converted to X separate houses. This was the seat of the Lord of Woolavington Manor, originally (following the Norman Conquest) one Robert de Candos of Nether Stowey. The house has been much altered over the centuries, but the existing property is thought to date, at least in part, from the 16th century...
The house in which the Wyburns lived is said to be the house north of the church, known since 1851 as the Manor House, owned and occupied by the Wyburn family after c 1840 but divided by 1909. The Manor House is said to date from the 16th century but has been much altered...
