Hi Diane ,
I have just come across your thread . I am also researching the Haines/Haynes family of the Shirenewton area having been DNA linked to them through at least 2 persons.
I have a concern with Susan's maiden name which I believe is incorrect , in that 1-John & Susan had a daughter MARY baptized on 22ndJune1800 at St Peter's church (where their other children were baptized) , that 2-on the 1851 census Susan states her birth place to be Chepstow , Monmouthshire , and after doing family history now for over 30yrs , I have found that in 90% of marriages the marriage took place at the bride's Parish .
I have found several Susans/Susannahs baptized in the 1770's in Chepstow (not a single Beardsley) whose families I am now researching to see if I can find a family link .
