I am looking for Jean Gertrude Beddow, born 1934 and was living in Toronto in 1954 on Roselawn Avenue. She worked as a cashier in a grocery store. That's all I know. Is this the same Beddow family you are looking for information on?

Is there a possibility they had another brother named George Beddoe or Beddow? They are from Glamorgan Monmouthshire Wales as well.

Re: Beddows in Wales

fancyfree220021 — 2012-02-18 14:42:37Z

My great-great-great grandfather is George Beddoe born on Nov 17, 1823 died Oct. 1851. He lived in Glenmorgan, Wales. He was married to a Jane Meredith from Bedford England. His father was a George Beddow (Last name spelled different) born in 1745 in Victor, Monmouth, Wales. I have no other information on him. There were 3 children from George and Jane:
Lucretia B; Dec. 1845; D: May 1851
James William B: Jan 1848; D: 1917 (My GG grandfather).
Daniel B; June 1851; D: 1877

My GGG grandmother Jane immigrated over shortly after George died and came to Utah.

George Beddow, born in 1797. he had a son, George Beddo (the spelling became different), who ran a grocery store (told by the woman he married Jane Meredith, who hailed from England. They had 3 children Lucretia b. 12/22/1845 (died 6 years later); James william Beddo b.01/28/1848 (Died in Vernal, Utah in 1917), & Daniel Beddo b. 06/04/1851 (Died 1877).

GrahamBeddows — 2010-07-20 19:44:47Z

Not sure if this fits your research but there seems to be at least part match.
The furest I havbe got back is John 1822 born Kinnerley Salop
Married to Mary
Children Joesph, Elizabeth, Jane, Thomas 1853, Mary and Charles.
Thomas is my Great grandad, his son was also Thomas 1877, and one of his sons (my father)is Reginald 1915.

Let me know if that helps and perhaps we can swap information if this fits.

Dear Keith

I am intrigued by your search. My grandfather (Bruce Beddow of Yorkshire area) married a Stella Grady (also known as Mary I think) in 1926 in Cannock. He had 3 brothers and 2 sisters all with christian names beginning B. Is there any connection with your ancestor marrying a Grady. Seems an interesting coincidence.

I now will set about seeing how many others I can find. My email is chrisgrady100@hotmail.com and I will let you know if I discover any more.

Re: Bruce Beddow / Stella Grady m1926

dbeddow197 — 2008-10-27 19:29:22Z

Bruce had several brothers and sisters all with the initial B. I am not sure of there chronological order.
Beatrice, Baden, Bertram, Bernard, my father who married Mary Ellen Babb. And Beryl who was principal of the local primary
school in Cannock.
Beatrice (Sis) was a midwife for many years and delivered some 3,833 babies in her time.Sorry I can,t help on the Grady side of the family save to confirm that Anthony did exist. He was married seven times according to Bruce he told me that after my fathers funeral.If I can help in any other way please let me know.

Beddow family - Pembrokeshire

akdwaters — 2008-01-22 11:49:50Z

I have been researching the Beddow population in Pembrokeshire, Wales. They were an extensive family in the 18th-19th centuries around the villages of Redberth and Carew, but rapidly dwindled towards the end of the century. Local oral history states that the majority emigrated to the US and Australia. Does anyone have links to this Pembrokeshire branch? Associated surnames include George and Roch. Thanks.
