Anyone Know where BEAVO is????????
« on: Wednesday 26 October 05 09:52 BST (UK) »
I am trying to locate where Robert Gurney was born the only information i have is on the 1851 printed census where it says he was born in BEAVO? Norfolk. I have no idea where this is if it exsists at all.Does anyone know of it or anything like it?
 Can anyone see the written image of the 1851? it may have been wrongly transcribed.
Robert died before 1861 and in the 1841 it just states he was born in Norfolk.
Without this place i am stuck as to how to find his parents?
Any help would be very gratefully recieved

It looks like Beavor to me! Still non the wiser because I haven't heard of anywhere of that name in Norfolk. Perhaps somebody else has an idea.

Hi Scrattletrap,
Thank you for the information on Robert Gurney you said you looked on ancestry what census did you find those details?. My Robert was born about 1799 / 1802 ? Norfolk.
Does the age work out right for my Robert? I believe he died in either 1852 or 1856 in Norwich Norfolk.

Hi Molar,
Thanks very much for your reply, i am sending you a PM

Thank you both for all your help
