My line of the
Beach family has been traced back to John Beach, born in 1841 in
Lynn, Norfolk. Although we have yet to trace John's parents, family
information suggests his father was a Yorkshire Biscuit Manufacturer
(though this is currently being questioned as you can see from the
Generation 0 page).
John moved to
Staffordshire where he met his wife-to-be, before moving and settling
down in Dover, Kent. He died in 1895 in Dover, but my line of the
Beach family then moved west to Devon where most of the family remain.
