I have looking for the wife of John Fryatt Ann Wybrew born 1770 Rivenhall Essex
Looking at the web site of Rivenhall I have come across this entry.
For me I think that "Fanny" should have been Annie.As she married John Fryatt in 1790 both were from Rivenhall I believe she is the daughter of William Wybrew and that his father could be Will Wybrew. The only thing I can not find out is what does a "Base Son" mean I have also found her brother John Wybrew on the Census of 1851 in Witham.
I hope this might help

The name I believe should be WHYBREW

In an 1803 list of the 64 cottage dwellers in the parish, we find the name of 'Hannah WIBROW'.

Notes: - The name seems to have been written by a rector and the earlier parish clerks
‘as it sounded' - the final part 'brough' as in e.g.
Scarborough. This fits in with what P. H. Reaney had to say on the name 'Wyber' and its derivatives Wyberg, Wybergh, Wybrew, and Wybrow etc. in...
"A Dictionary of British Surnames", Routledge & Kegan Paul 2nd imp.1961
Although the spelling 'Whybrow' does occur a couple of times in the 18th century Rivenhall registers, it was probably due to a new parish clerk coming upon the scene who had not met this form before. As the 19th century moved on,'Whybrew' became the standard spelling in this parish.
