James BEAMAN Sr. and Elizabeth GODMAIR
99th Regiment of Foot
September 2, 2006:
Al:
I think we have completed this original family that came to Canada as far
as we have been able to research. There may be some daughters missing as these
were the only marriages we could find. I have worked on this family for several
years with assistance from Linda Bunn, Vera Abercrombie, Peggy Burbidge,
Janet Arthurs, Debi Beaman and others.
In this format all children that have descendants are shown with a number to
the left hand side of their name which indicates their children in the second
generation and so on in the third generation.
I would welcome any additional information that anyone can add to this family
or corrections and will share any additional information that I may have.

JAMES BEAMAN SR.
GENERATION NO. 1
1. JAMES1 BEAMAN was born Abt. 1798, and died Aft. 1881. He married
ELIZABETH GODMAIR. She was born Abt. 1790, and died Bef. 1871.
James came from County of Cork in Ireland. He joined the Irish 99th Regiment of
Foot and was a private in the 1812-14 War. He was posted to Lower Canada. In 1817
the 99th was stationed at St. Jean on the Richelieu. The Regiment was disbanded
in Lower Canada (Quebec) during the summer of 1818. Many of the members accepted
the offer of land, tools, seed and household items from the government.
The families travelled by bateaux to the Upper Ottawa River, then from there
the men cut a road across to the Goodwood River (Jock) to the site of what
became the town of Richmond, Ont., in which area the men received their land
grants. James Beaman received a grant of land of 100 acres in 1821, the east
half of Lot 12, Conc. 2, in Goulbourn Twp. It is believed that James was married
prior to coming to Richmond and we understand he arrived in Richmond about 1820.
We have not been able to find a record of their deaths and burials. Elizabeth was
in the 1861 census but in 1871 James was described as a widower. He is shown in
the 1881 census as being 84 years of age.
