None of this seems to match your Tyler names but maybe there is a possible connection.

From Elk County, A Narrative History of Elk County and its People

Page 172 –mention of Elsie Alta Thomas, daughter of Alfred and Mattie (Tyler) Thomas.

Page 232—Chester Sprague married Ella Tyler.

Page 233—Mont Oren Sprague married Tillie Tyler.

Page 241—mentions a Royal Tyler born in July 2, 1788, and moved to Oak Valley area in 1870 from Illinois (Which would mean he was 82).

Married his first wife, Mary Ann, in 1813 and there were six children: Moses, Mary, Louis, Ann, Royal, and James.

Married his second wife, also named Mary Ann, in 1850 and there were eleven children, Emma Louise, Elinor,
Marshall, Percilla Murden, Jime, Ida Josephine, Mattie, Egar, Orter, Royal, and Olive.

The eleventh child of the second union was born after they moved to Kansas.

This guy must have been something else. According to the book, his second wife was born in 1833 and they married in 1850 (when he would have been fifty).

Did not see anything on Bunnell
