My full name is Arthur Trevor Beeson, born in West Bromwich, My fathers name was Joseph Arthur Beeson and mother Mary Beeson. We lived in Wednesbury, Midlands and worked in West Bromwich at George Salters weighing machine company. If anyone recognises any of the names I would like to get in touch as we have been in South Africa for the last 20 yrs and lost touch with aunts and uncles.

Hello to all my UK cousins, My name is David Beeson. My family here has done a great job with our history in the States. In college, I went back as far as the 1100's in England. I would love to share all we have if anyone there is interested. Please let me know

The Beeson family has flourished over the years. Ironically, I now live in the same Ohio Township where my grandfather (Frank A. Beeson) and grandmother (Theresa Kastner Beeson) lived for many years before passing away. Butler Township, located in southwestern Ohio ... north of Dayton ... was home to the Beesons. On a sprawling farm, which is now the Dayton International Airport, my grandparents nurtured six boys and five girls. Today, five of the aunts and uncles are still alive. We hold a Frank Beeson family reunion every other year allowing us to keep track of the growing Beeson family tree.

I met and became friendly with an English physician named Brian Beeson, in 1950, when he was working temporarily at a Tuberculosis Sanitorium in Manitoba, Canada. He mentioned that his father and he had been able to bring back some soldiers stranded on the beach at Dunkirk, France, in May or June of 1940. In 1950 he seemed to be in his mid 20's. I wonder if he is still alive, and if so if one can find his whereabouts.

I do know our family is from the UK somewhere but where?????

I live in Milton Keynes and know very little of my family history save that the paternal side come from Birmingham. my paternal great-grandfather was called Samuel Beeson. My paternal grandfather was called Frank Beeson but I have no idea what his wife was called. She died in the 1930s. Frank Beeson died in about 1978. Frank had 4 legitimate children: Cyril, Lillian, Leslie and Kenneth. With the exception of my father Leslie I suspect they are all now dead; certainly Kenneth is, he died in 2001. I think there was one other child Jean who was (I understand) born out of wedlock. My father was born in 1926 so his siblings will have been born no earlier than 1920 nor later than 1930.
My father's family lived in the Yardley area before moving to Fordrough Lane, Bordesley Green.
My father has no interest in developing any contacts with members of his family but I do. Any enlightenment would be welcome therefore.

I am trying to trace Beesons from Lincs but again not too sure about this. My father was Gordon Beeson, his parents were Horace Beeson and Doris Beeson nee Green. Hhorace's father was William who I first find in 1881 census married to Ada/Adelaide Milner. His birth place is shown as Great Hale, Lincs but I cannot verify this. They married in 1877 in Chesterfield, Derbys. His father's name is left blank, but a later marriage shows his father listed as Henry. Help!!!!!!

I am trying to find information on the Elizabeth Beeson who married Jacob Elliot, born Nov 11 1752(Sadsbury, York Co., Pa). I would like her DOB, etc, when they were married, where, and also the names and DOB of their children etc. The only one I have is Susannah Elliot, DOB: July 31 1789, in either N.C. or TN. Susannah married William Dimmitt in 1809. Several Dimmitts married Elliots, and I am curious if these are Susannah's siblings. Thanks for any help.

I have a Frank Beeson in my family tree. He was born in Six Bells, Abertillery and married my aunt. They had three children - Brian, Gordon and John - all still living. Frank and my aunt moved from South Wales to Birmingham around 1937 but divorced a few years later. Frank stayed in Birmingham, but I cannot find what happened to him. Any help appreciated.

I wrote to you a few weeks ago wondering if you knew of any Beesons in Frisby on the Wreake. I have now found out that my Beesons are actually from Rearsby and Jane Beeson married my ancestor Isaac Marriott. The problem is now that I have found that on the marriage info it only lists Jane's mother as Anne Beeson as does the christening info. Is there any way to discover if this Jane was born out of wedlock? Would church records show this? If this Jane was born out of wedlock, I am guessing that Anne Beeson (born 1808 in Rearsby) was the daughter of John Beeson and Barbara Thompson(married July 10, 1776 in Rearsby. From there I can only guess which John Beeson (born 1773 or 1770) is my descendant. As you can see this all hinges upon finding out:
a. Was Jane a bastard child?
b. Did Anne Beeson come from Rearsby?
c. Is she the Anne Beeson of 1808 belonging to John and Barbara?
d. Which John is which?
Any suggestions you can give me to unravel this little mystery is appreciated.

I am trying to find out some geneology stemming from my grandfather's father Thomas Beeson Marriott, born in Frisby on the Wreake. Beeson appears to be an unusual middle name, so we assume it was a family name from his mother, Jane Marriott ( maiden name unknown). His father, Isaac Marriott, was born in 1833, so I assume that his wife was born somewhere near that time. Does anyone know of any Beesons in Frisby? Also, we believe that Jane is possibly from Rearsby(?)

I'm researching my branch of the Beesons and have got back to James Beeson, born c.1802 (possibly in Chenies, or surrounding area). His father's name was William. I know that by 1850 James had moved to London (Strouds Vale, near Kings Cross) and was probably working on the railway. By then he was widowed, but I haven't managed to discover anything about his first marriage. Does anyone have any other info?

My husband is looking for relatives of his biological father (whom he never met). We know that Colin Gordon Beeson, originally from Guildford, UK, died in approx. 1985. My husband was later approached by Colin's wife, Frieda, but she stopped writing all of a sudden. She did tell us that they had a son together. So who knows a Colin Gordon Beeson, Frieda Beeson and/or their son? Email: nnijsen@hotmail.com Name: Nicole Nijsen

My name is Jon Beeson and I live in south west London. I believe the name Beeson originates from the ancient anglo saxon term for 'Peter' which was apparently called 'Bee' (Or something similar). Therefore Beeson means 'Peter's son'.

My name is Leslie ADAM Beeson(1968). My Grandfather came from the Mile End Road area of London and later lived in Edmonton Middlesex. His name was Leslie Anderson (1896). My dad's name was Leslie Edward (1930). We are just starting out on the name trail and are having a lot of trouble tracing where we came from, from Australia. We have partial family tree from my aunty in Carshalton Surrey. Her name is Olive Parker (1924). My Grandmothers maiden name was Agnes May Chalk (?) and I believe that her family came from around Salisbury. Does any of this fit in with your research on the BEESON name.

My great-grandmother's name was Hellen Elizabeth Beeson married Henry Tilling on May 23, 1894 in the Parish of Sunningdale, Birkshire. Hellen had a sister Sarah (married to Charles Slyfield?) and a brother Charles who were witnesses at her wedding. Hellen and Henry emigrated to Canada (where I live) in about 1908. Does this mean anything to anyone else?

Hi, Interested to see your page. My son is Billy Beeson (1999) My name is Simon Beeson (1961) My father was Colin Charles Beeson (1932-1975). We know very little about his family, although my mum Mary (nee) Lawton is starting to look. My grandfather was Charles Beeson (?-1970? Westrum,Kent). We think he was born in Catford, but have no proof. I know the graveyard in Chorleywood has many Beesons: it is my sister in law's church by co-incidence. Are these the "Rickmansworth" Beesons? You will see I continue the "Charles" name, and my other grandfathers name "Arnold" Lawton. If you do know anything about my family, I would be interested to hear. My grandfather worked for Wimpy Builders most of his life. Trivia: we once owned the car plate "CB 65".

Our Beeson family are from Reading, Berkshire, England from where this family migrated to Augstralia in 1978. My family consists of my husband, myself and three daughters plus a son-in-law and two grandchildren. We have lived in the Brisbane suburbs of Rochedale and Calamvale since 1978 and have been tracing our Beeson family for a couple of years without much luck in the UK before my Grandfather Robert George Beeson. From this site I have now traced the Beesons in the UK - it is so exciting!!
