BEVERIDGE FAMILY BARROW IN FURNESS
« on: Thursday 20 August 15 17:17 BST (UK) »
I have recently started researching my Family tree and was wondering if anyone knew anything about the Beveridge family. So far I am aware of Phoebe Ann Beveridge who was born 29.05.1853 in Preston and married John Walker 01.06.1861 then died died 17.12.1929. Her Father was Thomas Beveridge who had his own iron business "Beveridge and sons" founded in 1856 in Barrow in Furness and I believe this was then passed on to one of his sons- James to become "James Beveridge and brothers". Does anyone know anything regarding Thomas' Wife Isabella? I have no wedding information or even a birth year for the pair along with no maiden name for isabella. Any information on the family or business would be much appreciated.

Familysearch shows Thomas Beveridge married Isabella Burn 13/1/1834 Chester le Street, Durham.

Census shows Thomas bc.1809 Norham Main, Durham and Isabella bc.1809 Ashton, Durham.

Wow thanks so much everyone! I was aware of George Burn Beveridge and his family but finding out Thomas' parents was a major breakthrough! I had previously used this website http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ and managed to obtain dates for christenings.

Is there no other information listed for Isabella Burn?
What websites am I best using?


Thanks again for all your help
