On 16 February 1809, Elizabeth Hyatt, "widow", signed her will, leaving everything to her son, Robert: 
"Whereas my Son Robert Hyatt for many years past has lived with me and taken great care of my Business 
without whose assistance I could not have managed the same and also otherwise assisted me in my Concern 
I therefore as a token of gratitude give and bequeath all my Household Goods and Furnitures, Stock in 
Trade and all other my effects of whatever description that I shall die possessed of unto my said son Robert". 

* On 10 August 1819, Elizabeth Hyatt's son, Robert was sworn as her sole executor, 
showing that she had died by this date. Her effects were valued at £100.

* In the 'Universal British Directory 1793-1798', Elizabeth Hyatt is described as the 'victualler' or landlady 
of the Cross Keys inn. This suggests that her husband, John Guppy Hyatt, had died before 1798 at the latest.
