Beaver family in Uxbridge

Beaver family in Uxbridge

Posted: 30 Dec 2014 1:04AM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Beaver; Prior
I'm wondering if anyone is researching their family in Uxbridge, Canada and might have Frederick Beaver as part of their family. He married Susanna Prior and left England (Burnham Market, Norfolk area) and arrived in Canada somewhere around 1870 or so. His family followed him in 1872.

I have received a wealth of information from the Uxbridge Library and there seems to be another line of Beavers there so I would love to hear from anyone who had family in the Uxbridge area and have the surnames of either Beaver or Prior in their family tree.

I have Frederick's brother, Benjamin Beaver, in my tree and have been researching his life both here in Victoria, Australia and also in Norfolk, England.

Thanks,
Karen Kearney (kearney183)

Hi Kathleen. Thank you for this. I do have much of the information but I'm wondering if this is part of your family? I'm looking for anyone related to these Beavers or Priors. Hoping you may be. :-)

Thanks,
Karen

Thank you again Kathleen. :-) I really am after others in the area who may be researching the same branch.

I'll have another look at what I've collected. I suspect there's a couple of things you've found that I didn't. Thank you.
