My Grandmother May Beasley was the daughter of Tom Beasley, she married Robert Pond. I have inherited about 8 newspaper articles on Tom, another about the death of his wife Harriet, and a few magazine articles about Rhoda Madge Beasley - grand daughter of Tom, a world renowned model and friend of Cathleen Sabine Mann - Lady Queensbury
Wonderfull I use these empire razors great blades these are a little difficult to hone though
Tom Beasley was my great grandfather,i well remember my
visits to see him at his house in Acton.Tom died when I was
10 and at aged 15 I went to work at Wilkinsons factory in Acton,however as a somewhat restless youth I went off to sea at 16.
My Grandmother Dolly was Toms daughter and like Tom she had a long life,she died aged 90 in 1985.
