Bedells family
« on: Friday 29 August 14 14:34 BST (UK) »
Hi, I am looking for information on the Bedells family. They were based in and around the Grantham area but as I go back there seems to be none on some of the censuses, I assume it's because they've not been completed yet.

My search has lead me to a William Bedells (b: abt. 1831) and married a Mary Ann (b. abt. 1830). I have either Bradford or Leicestershire for the birth of William (quite an area!). Their first born was George Bedells in abt. 1850. They're found in Grantham in 1891 c. (Mary is a widow and living with her two youngest: George Wm and Henry (Harry).

Each of my family surnames lead me to lots of sites with info but it appears this particular name is rather elusive (on my searches).

Is there anyone out there looking for the Bedells family?

I hope  with a name like Bedells you are looking at alternative spellings? Bedel/Beddel/Bedell/Bedels/ Beedells/Beadells etc
If you look on the 1891 census and put a broad name search with Grantham as the place, it brings up loads of possibles.

thank you both so much! the freecen site has no 'Bedells' found in 1841, 51, or 81. I will try different spellings with my search.
The Nottingham one looks like the right one! Thank you Rosie!

I was looking at the Mary Ann Carrall one last night but I was unsure as I saw a Mary Ann Lowe too. You are a star! muchas gracias!

Thank you!, they had two sons named George, this is the younger. That is great. Bradford it is then! I was hoping for Leicester as I live here and could go to the records office easier :,)
