Beacom

Hi I am looking for the family Beacom. Been at a dead end. I found William and Rebecca Beacom in the 1861 Scotland Census. And a Thomas Beacom birth 1846 in Renfrewshire and a William Beacom birth 1859 in Renfrewshire. My Great Grand Father was William and his brotherThomas came over to USA around 1869. The infomation I have their parents was William and Rebecca Beacom. And they had a brother Robert Beacom that married a Christina. They had 3 children and lived in Govan, Scotland. With the name Beacom I am having alot of issues trying to put the pieces together. Would like any help with finding my roots. Thanks Bonnie

Hi Bonnie
Welcome to RootsChat 
There is a submitted entry showing for William and Rebecca's marriage in Ireland on IGI at www.familysearch.org:
WILLIAM BEACOM and REBECCA KEYS Marriage on 27 AUG 1835 iin Drumkeeran, Fermanagh, Ireland
Is this the 1861 entry you referred to:
William Beacom 50, ag. lab. b. Ireland Rebecca Beacom 48, b. Ireland Thomas Beacom 15, bobbin polisher, b. Ireland
Address: 18 Incle St, Abbey Burgh
There is also this family showing in Renfrewshire in 1861:
John Beacom 40, lab., b. Ireland Susan Beacom 39, b. Ireland Joseph Beacom 15 b. Ireland John Beacom 6, b. Paisley William Beacom 2, b. Paisley
Address: 10 Niddry St Back House, Paisley
I can't easily see any Beacoms in the 1851 census in Scotland - likely the families came over from Ireland after this census.

This looks to be Robert and Christina in 1881:
Robert Beacom 38, Iron Finisher Ship Yd, b. Ireland Christina Beacom 35, b. Glasgow Robert Beacom 9 Thomas Beacom 7 Alexander Beacom 6 William Beacom 2 Charles Campbell 25, b. Boarder
Address: 92 Queen St, Govan
And the only other Beacom family in Scotland in 1881 (that we had in 1861 headed up by John):
Susan Beacom 57 Joseph F Beacom 34 William Beacom 23 Jane Fyfe Beacom 12, granddaughter John A Beacom 8, grandson
Address: 4 South Croft, Paisley Abbey

From the 1880 census in Michigan (www.familysearch.org), William, Rebecca and son Thomas show as living there (name down as BECOM). There are only 29 Beacoms (and variants) showing with an Irish birth place in the US census in 1880, maybe some connections there.

Thanks you so much for this information. I am trying to put some of the names with my family tree. I know that my great Grand father William and his brother Thomas came over to the USA about 1869. And I think they came through Canada. But really not sure. This surname is hard to trace, Thanks again.
