Thanks for your responses and suggestions which I will try and follow up.   I have managed to trace the Beeney family back to 1781 with the Birth of Absolom Beeney so presume Absolom became a family christian name as there was another Absolom born in 1821 and another in 1845.   My Great Grandfather Absolom produced 8 children (including another Absolom born 1880) but no William is mentioned but thanks Philip.    I think I am going to find it impossible to find anyone who might have either a family photo or an individual photo of my Granddad as either a boy or a grown man but maybe one day my luck will change!
Thanks again for your input.

I am the granddaughter of Walter Beeney born 1875 whose parents were Absolom and Letitia (Ripley).  My Grandfather's first wife was a Susan Ann Swaine and they had either one or two children.  After they divorced my Grandfather then married my Grandmother Alice Lily May Andrews and had two children, one being my Mother. I realise I am probably on a wasted journey but my quest is to try and find a photo of my Grandfather as no one in my immediate family has one.    Although Granddad was born in Kent he moved to Eastbourne where he became either a groom or a 'taxi' driver albeit horse and carriage.    If anyone can help I would be extremely grateful.
