? do wonder, whether (from the Will of John BEARD, City of Gloucester, Victualler 1827) is the father of George BEARD (although, as yet can't find a baptism) - but can for some of his children at Gloucester St Nicholas.
John BEARD talks about his property in Stourport in the County of Worcester.
Wife: Mary
and seven children
George
Edmund - 16 July 1809 (Boat Owner in Quary Street 1841 census aged 30 - died a few years later)

David Evans BEARD - 4 January 1818, John (Victualler) & Mary
Ellen
Daniel John BEARD - 24 November 1822, (parents as above)**

There is a Susan BEARD christened at Glos. St Nicholas 18 October 1807 - parents: John & Mary
George & Elizabeth use the name Daniel

Looking at the Electoral Register, 1841 for Gloucester
