Did you try freebmd?

Did you use the spelling you have put in your post?

If you did, that explains why you couldn't find anything...........you have one letter wrong, and that makes all the difference

John and Mary were not together in the 1871 census.....

Hi John

Have you tried to contact anyone else who seems to have him in their tree on here? There seems to be quite a lot seeing as there is only one Jabez Beck listed on the birth records...If you have not looked go to search top right of screen, select all trees and just enter his name to try and make contact click on "find out more" and remove the standard message and compose one of your own

If that is his death the year of birth is obviously wrong so 23/12/1918 is more likely to be correct birth date

Married twice?
