Also: LETTER: E. Terrar, Washington to Mr. Jones, County Librarian, thanking him for information about his family and telling him about his research to date.
William Tyrer was born most likely in the 1740s or 1750s in Lancashire County. He moved to Amlwch in 1768-1769 to work in the new Parys Mountain Mine which opened in 1768. He was one of a relatively large number of Englishmen who came to Amlwch at this time to work in the copper mine. Most of the Englishmen came from Cornwall, where there was a long tradition of copper mining. However, the name Tyrer is specific to Lancashire.
