The
Faithfull ‘Tree W’ contains the following entry:
1.3.5.2.2.4.1.9.2

age 78 Pauper
b
22.5.1775 Froxfield d 22.9.1854 Southwick, Southampton
m 25.10.1792 Westminster ELIZABETH
(BETTY) BEON 1781 age 12yrs?
Chiddingfield Surrey d 13.5.1855
Issue 1 JAMES 2 ELIZABETH
3 JOHN 4 MARTHA
(NEED TO CHECK JOHN’S MARR DATE AND ELDEST CHILD
JAMES BIRTH DATE)
Tree W has Elizabeth Beon because Westminster Parish records show that an Elizabeth Beon
married a John Faithfull in Westminster in 1792. However, I think it unlikely
that this is the same couple as my ancesters, since their eldest child was not born until 1823; there were other unrelated Faithfulls
established in London at that time; and she would have been only 11 or 12 if
born 1781 and married in 1792.
The 1851 census shows John’s wife
as Betty Faithfull aged 70 (i.e. born 1781) born in Chiddingfold, Surrey. I
suspect that this is a completely different person from Betty Beon.
