Buckinghamshire / Re: BEASLEY of Wooburn

Dear Chopsuey
Last Friday I visited the Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies and, as you had suggested, Benjamin and Ann were not the parents of Charlotte Beazley. Her parents were in fact Joseph and Elizabeth, and Charlotte's baptism was in 1814 (I was wrong in correcting that to 1817 in my earlier post.). I did manage to trace their other children's baptisms as well as those of Charlotte's children, including son Henry who was baptized a bastard under the surname of Beazley at Ickford before the marriage of Charlotte and William Freeman at Oxford a few months later. Henry died in 1844 and another Henry (or Harry), son of C & W, was baptized in 1850. Did you know that Ann and Benjamin Beazley had two sons baptized with the name of George, one in 1820 and the other in 1822? I listed the baptisms of Ann and Benjamin as well. If you would like to compare my notes with your information please let me know. Thank you for prompting me to make another visit to Bucks, it has proved very productive. I am sorry not to have any ancestors who emigrated to Australia - yet.
Best wishes
