Hi Seymor,

I now have over 80 cemetery records around Laois, but no Becton in my records.
I have covered most areas of Laois, but if there is somewhere you would like me to check, I will, in the meantime I will keep checking, and foward names if I come across them.
Best wishes
Jack :)

Many thanks.

I believe at some time the Bectons came from Laois but which area I have no idea. They are a hard family to track down.

But I do appreciate your input.

Happy Easter to you and yours

Seymor

Hello, again, Seymor,

Just checked the Laois phone book,
no Becton listed, but 1 in Kildare (Athy)
and 1 in Kilkenny.

Thanks again.
There is a family of Bectons around the Dublin region but we cannot find a connection to one another. Because records for my family are difficult to find we cannot find a connection. Maybe one day.

regards Seymor

Hi,

Try Griffiths Valuation 1848-1864.
Just type it in, then the names and it will give you lots of names.
I will check my records and foward any names I come across.
Best wishes
Jack

I am sorry to add to all the requests- could you check for the surname DAVIS?
