Three photos of James Eric Beeton and
Irene Beeton. They do seem to show a progression in ages. James was born in December 1915 and Irene in September 1920. So we can guess the photo on the right taken outside 8 High Street is c 1920. Irene was born in 1920 (presumably at 8 High Street). The photo bottom left is taken in the back yard of Rose Cottage, Aldbrough Road (their grandparent's house) and is c 1923. The bottom right photo is taken in the school yard c 1926. They are the children of Ernest Beeton and Christiana Kearry. There are quite a few photos of them, the best is of their marriage - click here. 8 High Street was originally the home of the children's grand-parents - Tom and Maud Kearry. But probably on their marriage, Ernest and Christiana moved into 8 High Street and Tom and Maud moved to Rose Cottage. There are lots of photos of the Kearry's and Beetons on the photo gallery, click here to go to the index. Click here to see a family tree of the Kearry's and Beeton's James Eric was married in 1945.
