andrew white and sophia beeridge

Dear Susanne

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I had a look on rootsireland.ie and there is a baptism records for a child, Francis Beeridge  in 1868 in Derry to a father Andrew and a mother surname Beeridge. As this is a subscription site I can?t see the mother?s first name. It might be a good idea to have a look. Alternatively you may be able to find the same information on familysearch.org for free.  I searched for an Andrew-Sarah marriage record but came up empty handed. In fact there is not record of any White-Beeridge marriage listed.  The former site also lists 3 baptism records for an Andrew born to a father Robert; two of these are in 1845 in Antrim and the third is much later in 1878 in Tyrone.

Do you think the Francis above could be Andrew?s son? Another thing to consider is the occupation of gardener; if you could identify the county of Andrew?s birth and where Robert lived we could research the big houses in the area where landed gentry would have hired staff, including outdoor staff.

Let me know what you think

Best wishes

Clare
