New Inn BEAFORD and the Parish Clerks of Beaford
« on: Thursday 10 June 21 13:55 BST (UK) »
Help I am once again on the trail of a family publican.
John Marshall died in Beaford in 1840  His death was announced in the Exeter and Plymouth Gazette 22 August 1840
July 31, at Beaford , near Great Torrington, Devon, aged 79 years, Mr John Marshall of the New Inn  in that place. deservedly respected as an honest and inoffensive man.
His son also gave John's occupation as Innkeeper but I can not find any trace of a New Inn in Beaford (there was a Globe and a Gunsmith's Arms)
Has anyone any information about this house please?
Secondly His son was the church warden from 1837- his death in 1883.
John Marshal witnessed mostof the marriages in Beaford from1793 at least to the end of the register on line
A William Marshall witnessed nearly all the weddings from 1777 until John took over in 1793
Is there any evidence anywhere that John and the older William were alo Parish Clerks
Finally can anyone find the birth of John Marshal around 1781 to see if  the older William was indeed his father.
Hope someone can help
Many thanks Trees

Wow well done that is all great yes I am having a mad moment I had him born  1761 (have a few problems seeing the difference between 6 and 8.  That burial in 1793 is perfect so I have proof both Williams were Parish Clerks so it is more than likely John was as well.
Interestingly I already have an Arthur Nott marrying a Margaret Marshall in 1723 and he was an overseer of the poor in Beaford they were my husband's 6x gt grandparents so it looks like the whole family link up. I will need to go back another generation to see how Arthur and Elizabeth  and William and Margaret relate

Can't thank you enough
Hazel :)

A distant ancestor of mine, George SQUANCE was the landlord of the New Inn, Roborough in the early 1800s. However, the National Archives shows several Victuallers' recognizances for the New Inn, Beaford in the name of John MARSHALL 1822- 1828 - see http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/3b3eeca4-64d4-406f-9db9-6dd7beff5d80

Also, look at this directory from 1850: https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/DEV/Beaford/Beaford1850
