Beddoes family bible
« on: Friday 30 October 09 19:50 GMT (UK) »
If anyone is researching the Beddoes family, I have seen a family bible in the Sue Ryder charity shop in Broadway, Worcestershire. The shop is located off the main street in the town and it was upstairs in the book section. It was in quite poor condition but had lots of names and dates listed in it. Hope this helps someone and it gets reunited with its rightful heirs.

I just found out about your post, as I just joined this forum yesterday. I am very interested in this Beddoes family Bible you mentioned. Is it still there? My gr gr great grandfather Samuel Thomas Beddoes was from Worcestershire and came to the USA in 1849. How can I reach the store? As this was 4 years ago, I can only hope it is still there.
Thank you!
