Thomas Beston

[RonnieG]

Chloe,

If you've already written to the various churches in Clonmel was one of them in the parish of Inishlounaght?

I would imagine that if you write again saying that you know for a fact that Thomas Beston was living there c.1855 and looking for details of his marriage and children you might get a more positive response, rather than asking for a speculative search on the off-chance that he is there.

Alternatively, a copy of most RC registers are on microfilm in the National Library and C of I registers are with the RCBI in churchtown.

Thanks again Ronnie.  No I've not written to anyone there but I certainly will when I find the address and relevant church.  However, it's not the marriage or children I need - I've got them already from the English census images of 1870 onwards - it's his parents and siblings I'm endeavouring to find now - anything from Ireland basically.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Hi, I have just found that my grandfather's mother was Julia Beston and her father was Thomas. From her birth certificate her mother was Elizabeth Charlotte Blake. I'd be very interested in any more info yo might have on the Beston line.
Thanks
Barbara

Hi Barbara
This is exciting.  Can you email me - (*) - it seems we are certainly connected and I can hopefully share with you what I have on the Bestons, if you'd like.

Hello,
I have been trying to find the parents of my husband's grandfather Patrick Frederick Beston . He was born March 17 1884 in Clonmel, Tipperary Ireland.
We know that he came to MA in 1907 and that he married Ellen(Nellie) McCarthy in 1914 in Somerville MA. and he is Catholic. Thanks for any help that someone can give me.

If we share the same Thomas Beston he died in England around 1920.  If you want to email me, feel free (*)

Since I'm new to this chat they removed your email address.

[Catkins]

Now don't worry Micki, I didn't know they'd do that.  Let's try it another way and hope it doesn't get deleted.  My email address is (*)

Let me know if you still can't see this or work it out!

Hi Chloe & Barbara

I have recently started helping a friend with his family tree.
His aunty married a BESTON, and I have found the husband in the 1911 census aged 4 months with FOUR generations of the same family.

The head of the household is Edward aged 41 & his wife Elizabeth aged 39 with 12 of their 14 children + daughter in law + grandson.

The eldest male listed is one Thomas BESTON, widower, Labourer, aged 69, b. Clonmel, Ireland (sounds like your man).

The 4 month old boy who married my friend's aunty went on to have possibly 4 boys that I have found. 
Are you able to help with living relatives?  If so PM me and I wiil put you in touch.
