Hi Alf
 my gg grandmother was Annie Beard
Her family I believe were from the Stroud area. I have a 1841 census that seems to add up to be the family. Annie was born in Australia but her parents and older siblings were from the Gloucestershire area. I believe this is the family. I know her father was Alfred but her mother was Ann(possibly) if this is the right census then it was possibly Alice I cant find a marriage record but BMD has a the daughter emily born around the right year registered in Stroud.

here  is the details
Alfred Beard born around 1830 found in the 1841 census living with his family and parents Edwin and Mary Beard in Minchinhampton
In the 1851 census he is married to an Alice and has one daughter Emily 1 By the next census he was in Australia.

Does this line belong to your family hopefully we can swap notes
Michele

Hello Alf

I have Ann Cambridge Beard bpt. 06.10.1895 @ Longhope.  She was the daughter of Charles Beard and Martha Cambridge.  Charles was the son of Thomas Beard & Elizabeth.  All this info is from the IGI - I haven't had the opportunity to verify any of it yet.

Hi I'm also researching the beards from St briavels. Edward Beard 1840-1885 / Ellen Beard (Bristol) fm Williams - 1848-1906.
Edwards Parents William Beard 1810-1894 and possible mother Mary (18051868?) . I have more information beyond this but unconfirmed at this moment but also looking for other secondary resources. Is this the same line as your researching

Hi Alf

I have a great grandfather,  James Beard, who was born in Longhope Glos. In 1861. He was the eighth child of Phillip and Ann.

On leaving Longhope he changed his name to Maurice and became a grocer in Fulham, marrying Alice Bowyer from Winkfield.

I have only briefly researched him in censuses plus a little help from the Longhope village website -  which has the baptisms of his seven older siblings but not for him or his younger sister.
Phillip was the son of Robert and Nancy (for some of the children the baptisms say Ann, which is confusing).

Robert’s eldest was Richard Dobbs Beard, so perhaps Robert married a Dobbs. However there are children of Robert, Richard Dobbs, and Phillip who all have a second name of Bentley,  so I would be very interested if you or someone else could tell me where this connection lies.
