Notes:
During the years that the present watercolor albums were compiled, the Yelloly family lived at Woodton Hall, near Norwich, Norfolk. Sarah Tyssen Yelloly (1785-1854) and her husband, John, had ten children; four survived to adulthood. She taught them all to draw (she herself was taught by the noted watercolorist Copley Fielding). John Yelloly (1774-1842), Fellow of the Royal Society, was author of "Observations on the arrangements connected with the relief of the sick poor" (1837). The family moved to Cavendish Hall, Suffolk, in 1840.
