Jane Agnus Bevan/Beavan (Inquests)

by jhomman, Saturday, February 08, 2014, 18:14 (3701 days ago)

I descend from Jane. I know some hard facts, but cannot locate anything to tie her to parents or beyond.

Born 20 Sept 1840 (supposedly Bristol or Gloucester)
Married 17 Nov 1864 in Winchester

I have been searching for decades on this lady. I am struck by how little information I can find.

If anyone can help me, I would be greatly appreciative! Thanks.

Although, there is on the 'net'…..

Notes for James BEAVAN

"Born 20 Sept 1840 (supposedly Bristol or Gloucester)
Married 17 Nov 1864 in Winchester"

Checking Gloucestershire BMD Indexes between 1838 and 1845 there is not a record of the birth of Jane Agnus Bevan/Beavan anywhere in Gloucestershire. There is a birth of Jane Bevan in Gloucester in 1840, mother's former name-Deane, Office-Gloucester, St John the Baptist, Register-2, Entry-189.

Perhaps the key to solving this puzzle is, as MPGriffiths suggests, in obtaining the marriage certificate to show Jane's father, especially if Jane's marriage to Emanuel Butcher was not her first.

If you don't have it already this is a link claiming a connexion with the Hunting family (and even royalty) for Jane's mother:-

https://familysearch.org/patron/v2/TH-300-42797-119-43/dist.txt?ctx=ArtCtxPublic

Some of the trees on Ancestry actually reflect this claim but, to be honest, I can't see any of the sources as definitive.

As a follow-up to the posts above LDS has a record of,

Jane Agnes Bevan
Baptised 09/04/1837
Brixton, St Matthew, London
Father, James
Mother, Jane

There are two marriages (also LDS) which could be relevant:-

12/09/1830
St Mary le Strand, Westminster
James Beavan and Jane Stoakes

29/10/1833
St Bride, Fleet Street
James Bevan and Jane Caslin

All this might mean it's outside the scope of this site.
