Re: Beard family in Bath UK

Dear Beth,

I've just started to do my BEARD part of the tree.I believe my ggg grandmother was Maria Beard who married a Frith (can't make out his first name).They had a daughter Mary Ann b. abt 1838 at Bath, Somerset.

Mary Ann married Thomas Frederick NEALE in 1857, at Bendigo, Victoria, Australia.They had at least four children, all born in Victoria, Australia:

Henry b. abt 1858
Edward Robert b. abt 1860
Another one (can't make out name) b. abt 1862
Augustus b. 1864

Mine line is from Augustus.

Does any of this ring a bell re Beard's of Bath, Somerset - perhaps Maria and Charlotte are related

Many thanks,
