Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I am a relative of the Beards of S.Chailey. My g/father was the Master of the workhouse later called Pouchlands. He was also the register of the area (births/deaths etc). His wife Gertrude lived opposite the Mill Lane windmill in later days and I think I remember it, next to the bakery.
My family the Beards used to run the mill in the 1800s. They also had the shop on the green which was there for over three hundred years.
My family were the Beards from the shop on the green next to the church. They had the shop from around 1754 to around the 1930s. George Beard the first was good friends with Thomas Turner who kept a diary, he recorded eleven colourful years of life in a Georgian village. Anyone who remembers them please keep in touch, I would love to hear your story. My grandmother was Evelyn Emma Beard / Kirkham. Thanks for your help. serenamkirkham@hotmail.com
