CCHT external link edit

This link was added to the article after discussion on the WP Reliable Sources Noticeboard. See: WP:RSN exercise. No information from the CCHT link has been put into the body of the article in the form of citations because it has not yet been verified for 100% accuracy by the Victoria County History project for Cumbria. (This will take some years to do). Laplacemat (talk) 10:01, 09 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Comment edit

I have traced my surname Beedham to the town of Beetham. Apparently, according to records I have uncovered from 1860, Beedham is a misspelling of Beetham. I am looking for two things: anybody who has the last name of beetham or beedham, and I am looking for my long lost father Michael John Beedham. If you have any information on that please contact me at jeff@jeffbeedham.com. My cell phone is 702-334-3040 here in the US. Also, if anybody can help me in migrating back to my genetic homeland of the UK I would much appreciative.

baronetcy should be restored edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The lands and title of the last baronet Roger de Betham were confiscated by the Cromwell government because he was a Royalist. Then a few years later was the restoration (James II). At this point the lands - or at least the baronetcy and title - should have been restored to the family Betham. They were not. This is still a sore point with the primogenitor descendants. Instead of simply deleting this section, consider that this is a matter of historic and legal interest for the readers of this talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.223.198.6 (talk) 03:54, 23 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
