There is, or was a Gilbert Beard in Soudley. He is/was a descendant or relative of Emily Richings 1866 -1958 and Charles Virgo.

Hi Roger

Many thanks for your reply. Do you have any information on that Beard family or do you know of any Beard Families that may be able to help me out ? I was in Cinderford Churchyard yesterday and found a few graves, but I have yet to connect them to the Beard's I found one and it was Gladyd Emily Beard nee Virgo, Gladys Emily, born abt 1888.

Many regards
Alf

Hello Alf,

The only one I know of, Gilbert Beard, lives or lived in Soudley. He is or was in the Telephone Book.

I believe he is/was descendant of Emily Virgo (Nee Richings) 1866 - 1958. I have a photograph of her, as a young woman. She is buried in Blakeney Tabernacle. Her Birth entry at GRO is June Qtr. 1866 Westbury S. 6a 205. She married Charles Virgo and they lived in the next house down from my greatgrandparents on Bradley Hill.

Emily's sister Hannah, born 1863 married my grandfathers brother William 1862 -1904.

Regards,

Roger
