the 1700s /early 1800 o/doran then it went to doran

I'm not picking on you Bimmercat but use of the phrase "the 1800s" is wrong unless it refers to the period 1800 - 1809. If you mean sometime between 1800 and 1899 then the correct term is 19th Century.
Hope you see that the incorrect usage can lead to confusion.

Although I do not know whether the people with my surname living in the USA are related to me, I would believe them to be, because it is unusual even here the UK, but there are people with my surname in Texas in the following places:- Garland, Plano, Dallas, Spring, Katy, Dayton, Lake Jackson, Liberty, San Antonio, Lubbock and El Paso. Are you, Bimmercat,
anywhere near one of these places?.

Thaks for the info. Could you check for the name Yearsley in those areas you mentioned as being in Houston please?. I found these places in a book entitled "The World Book of Yearsleys" published by Halbert's Family Heritage of 3699 Ira Road, Bath,Ohio 44210. USA. In it the estimated population in the USA of Yearsleys is 750 with Utah the most populous. The UK has approximately twice that number. Perhaps you could contact the publishers to check if they do a book for your surname.
