A BIG THANKYOU to you Elwyn š
Iād been struggling to find information via Ancestry for Tom Marshall although
Iād managed to find quite a bit on his wife (my grandaunt) from various sources.
I was also aware that her father was a linen beetler as that was also the trade
of my grandfather Samuel Carson from Derrinleagh, so putting ātwo and twoā
together he probably worked at nearby Wellbrook Beetling Mill which Iām hoping
to visit later this year and am hoping that they maybe have recorded workersā
details from that period š¤š»
Someone in my family a few years back had misinterpreted his occupation (from
my father & motherās marriage certificate) as a ābutlerā which seemed to fit in
nicely with the fact that he and his wife had began their married life together
in Antrim at a place named Muckamore Grange. The misconception was that they
both worked at this ābig houseā ā¦ he as butler and she as a housemaid š
Thankfully when I started working on our ancestry about 12 years ago, I was
able to discover that he was in fact a beetler and soon afterwards what his job
actually involved.
Best Regards ... Johnny Carson

Johnny,
There is a birth for Margaret Jane Barnes on 9th December 1884, in the townland
of Tamlaght. Her father John was a beetler (a process in linen finishing). Her
mother was Margaret Jane Henry.

Suspect this is her in 1901:

Hello all,
I am seeking any information on Thomas Marshall (born around 1880 probably but
not definitely in the Kildress area west of Cookstown) who was the husband of
my grandaunt āMargaret Barnesā (born 9th December 1884 probably in the Tamlaght
or Derrinleagh area of Oritor/Kildress)
There are quite a few erroneously listed family trees on Ancestry that show
Margaret Barnes being married to one James Slaine but he was more likely
married to her elder sister Maria as my family Bible lists this fact.
The Carson/Barnes family Bible probably had these facts recorded at a time when
these people were still alive but unfortunately I canāt 100% verify this as the
Bible was āhijackedā some years ago by someone in my family breaking the
tradition of it being passed down to the eldest son of each generation.
Thankfully I was able to obtain most of the information listed before my aunt
(whoād taken the Bible from my father) had died.
Best Regards ... Johnny Carson (Coventry, UK)
