Hello Fairlane,
4th Feb. 1852 Jane daughter of James & Mary Ann BEESLEY of Flackwell Heath age 11w. The other BEESLEYs seem to be children of Samuel and Mary so I haven't listed them.
I have ancestors, also living in Flackwell Heath, also had a daughter the same year, also shown in these records but some of their other children were baptised elsewhere. I wondered if perhaps people just baptised when and where it was most convenient - hope this doesn't offend anyone !!
Regards,
ANYAS

Hello ANYAS
Many, many thanks. I'm almost certain Jane is one of mine - the only BMD record I can find which is near is 1851 Dec qtr - Jane Beasley - and according to census my family had a Jane born abt 1851. 11 weeks of age in early Feb 1852 would put her in that qtr for registration.
If you come across any of the rest I know about they are Sarah Ann 1841; James 1842; Mary Ann 1844; Elizabeth 1849; Jane 1851; William 1855 and Emma 1858. Looking at the gaps there could well be others. Like many others I am trying for baptism records before sending for birth certs for siblings as all the £7's really mount up! At the moment I'm just asking for lookups for the main players as I'm not likely to get to Bucks in the forseeable future but would like to get a little way back with my gggggrandparents.
Why Jane in a different church as she came in the middle? Perhaps there was a charismatic new preacher and they were persuaded to join that church and then went back to their usual one. If and when I get all the baptisms I'll have a better idea if they chopped and changed or it was just the once!
Best wishes, Fairlane

Hello Anyas
The Solomon Ridgley is in my family tree as well. I have given up trying to find him in the 1851 and 1861 census. But my link comes through his first wife.
Regards

Hi again
Have not been to the RO as I don't like stuffy rooms in the summer but went today and can confirm that James Beasley baptised 14th Nov 1813 to Benjamin and Mary Ann. There is no marriage in Little Marlow for Benjamin and Mary Ann between 1803 and 1814.

Hi Jo,
Many, many thanks for your help with my Beasleys - I'm back further than I ever expected. My apologies for the late reply but I went to Italy on 13 June and only got back today. Had a wonderful walking holiday in the Appennine mountains. Like you I prefer not to visit stuffy rooms during the summer - much prefering working in the garden or walking so the research will probably take a back burner until autumn.
With best wishes,
Fairlane

Not sure if you are still looking for Beazleys of Wooburn, but my husband's great, great, great, great (think that is the number) grandfather was John Beazley who was born in Wooburn in 1753 death 1835. He married Elizabeth Philby 1755 - 21 April 1800. Marriage 10 January 1778 in Wooburn. They had a son Benjamin Beazley (often shown as Bazley) who I believed to be born 22 February 1795 in Ickford, Buckinghamshire (but may have gone there later) . He married Ann Haines 10 August 1817 at Cuddesdon, Oxfordshire. His occupation was agricultural labourer in Ickford. One of their sons was a James, though I do not have a lot of detail about him. His brother George (1822 Ickford) was my husband's line. Benjamin and Ann migrated to Victoria Australia 1852, George migrated 1851.

I googled 'Beazley' and 'Ickford' and found your posts earlier this year on Ancestry and RootsChat. I believe that my great great grandmother Charlotte Freeman (nee Beasley), born in Ickford in c.1814, may have been a daughter of Benjamin Beazley and Ann Haines. It's difficult to be sure as there are so many Beazleys (of all spellings) in Ickford in the mid-19th century censuses. I shall be making a trip to Buckinghamshire Record Office in the next week or so to check on Charlotte's baptism and parentage. If Benjamin and Ann do turn out to be my 3xg grandparents, it's interesting to see from your posts that they emigrated to Victoria (presumably voluntarily?!); that'll make them the first in my family tree to have settled overseas. Charlotte married William Freeman, thatcher and haybinder, before 1837, and produced about ten children, one of whom, James, eventually moved to Deptford, Kent, now London, and began the London associations of that side of the family. I'll contact you again, whether or not I find the link between Charlotte and Benjamin confirmed.

Benjamin Beazley (often misspelt which means you have to try a number of different spellings) was born or christened 22 February 1795 in Ickford, Buckinghamshire. He married his wife Ann Haines at Cuddesdon, Oxfordshire on 10 August 1817. I have not come across a Charlotte as one of their children and would seem unlikely if she was born 1814. As you said there are a number of Beazleys in Ickford at the time. I have not been able to work out the relationship between them all, but I suspect that they are all related in some way. My husband's great grandfather was George Beazley definitely the son of Benjamin and Ann. He was born in Ickford in 1822. The other children of Benjamin and Ann have been difficult to confirm positively. I have a number of names born in Ickford, not found exact records for them. It seems likely that their other children remained in Buckinghamshire or Oxfordshire. The parents of Benjamin are John Beazley and Elizabeth Philby as this is shown on his death certificate in Victoria, Australia where they settled c1851. George settled in Victoria also in 1852 with his family. There is a record of a Benjamin Beazley and a Charlotte Beazley migrating to Victoria also, but I think that they were husband and wife as they had children with them. They were also from Ickford. Hope this is of some help to you. Would love to hear if you can confirm there is a relationship between Charlotte and Ann and Benjamin. If anyone else knows of children of Benjamin Beazley and Ann Haines would be pleased to have their names.

Dear Chopsuey
Last Friday I visited the Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies and, as you had suggested, Benjamin and Ann were not the parents of Charlotte Beazley. Her parents were in fact Joseph and Elizabeth, and Charlotte's baptism was in 1814 (I was wrong in correcting that to 1817 in my earlier post.). I did manage to trace their other children's baptisms as well as those of Charlotte's children, including son Henry who was baptized a bastard under the surname of Beazley at Ickford before the marriage of Charlotte and William Freeman at Oxford a few months later. Henry died in 1844 and another Henry (or Harry), son of C & W, was baptized in 1850. Did you know that Ann and Benjamin Beazley had two sons baptized with the name of George, one in 1820 and the other in 1822? I listed the baptisms of Ann and Benjamin as well. If you would like to compare my notes with your information please let me know. Thank you for prompting me to make another visit to Bucks, it has proved very productive. I am sorry not to have any ancestors who emigrated to Australia - yet.
Best wishes
Robbdogg.
