I would appreciate any information on Beatta Phelps born abt 1849 (date taken from 1851 census as no baptism found so far). Her parents were Thomas Phelps 1822 Abenhall and Charlotte Roberts 1847 Drybrook.
She had known siblings: Harriet 1853 - Rachel - 1855 - James - 1857 - Jane 1859 and George 1850.(All dates taken from census)
I can find no baptism or further reference to Beatta after 1851, along with some of her siblins she has disapeared. I wonder if she emigrated? Any help appreciated. Regards Jean

Thank you M P Griffiths for your reply. I have already read this reference to Beatta. My question was "Has anyone any information on Beatta after this census reference" ie: marriage/emigration/demise? Regards Jean

She married William Griffiths and had children Jane (1871) (James 1875) George (1874) Flora (1875) and Emily (1879)
Her name appears on the FBMD as Bata and Bentha on the GBMD as Bela and Beatha on the 1881 census as Bertha but on the birth of James it is Beata. I think this is her.
