From Bee Beckett of Ancestry:-

Dear Brian,
Thank you for your email. I have been researching the Beckett line for a few years now and here is what I know:
As I mentioned, Stephen Beckett married Jane Shepherd 1873 in St Mary, Nottingham. Witnesses are John Swain and Mary Jane Swain. Jane Shepherd comes from Sutton Bonnington in Notts and her father is Thomas Shepherd (1827 Castle Donington) and her grandfather is Thomas Shepherd (1793 Diseworth), known in the family as "old Tommy". He married Elizabeth Swain (1784 Castle Donington) on the 29.1.1821 in Castle Donington and they had 3 children: Catherine (1822/5?), William (1824) and Thomas (1827). You can see William (a pic) on the Paul Scattergood family tree on ancestry. Elizabeth Swain is much older and we think she has been married before and has a child or children from this marriage. (I have't found proof, but it could be William Swain marrying 1.2.1808 Elizabeth Garton in Castle D., children George (1808), William (1810) and John, needs more research). What I do know is from a transcript of a letter from John Swain, written in 1846 from Altofts, near Normanton, calling Elizabeth and Thomas Shepherd "mother and father" and it talks about Fred going to a "woman" school and Thomas learning to read.
There are many cross references to the family, Jemima for example stays with grandparents Shepherd in Sutton Bonnington. Thomas Swain in 1861 has George and Catherine Simpkin as lodgers, Catherine is his aunt (Thomas and Elizabeth Shepherds daughter) and Elizabeth (his older sister) who is married to Joseph George Freemann (not Trumann!!).

Altofts Sunday night February 1 '46

Dear Father and Mother Brothers and Sisters I have been intending to write to you every day for these last six weeks but various things caused me to put it off till now. My Dear Wife has been anxious for me to write to you as she knew you would be uneasy about us. I cannot say that either the children or ourselves like this country near so well as our old home but as we are more comfortable than wee would be there wee try to make ourselves content. I hope wee do not forget to be thankful to the giver of every good thing for the comforts we daily receive from his hands, hitherto the Lord has suffered us to lack no good thing. wee have never been short of either fuel to burn or food to eat since we came here. And though we are as frugal as wee can be I do assure you when wee have paid our rent and purchased just needful things for our family wee have not much to spare. I do asure you after I had left you at Kegworth thoughts came into my mind that quite overwelmed me is the trouble, I do not know when I was so ill as I was the whole journey. since we came here Mary has not been near so well as usual and has much to do the work in the house the roads here are very dirty and that makes her more work but I am hoping she will be beter soon. I have been my month at work at nights hours from eight at night till six in the morning and it does not suit me so well as days. Lately I have suffered very much from my feet and I found it dificult to atend my work, at all the last three days. I am much beter you must not think the railway work in your country is any thing to be compared to the labour we have here but I can do it very well if my feet does not fail me. I am sorry to have to tell you that out of all either Masters or men at this station there is but three or four that ever go to a place of worship and the working men are not only wicked but very ignorant and seem to glory in what ought to be their shame. I do not assosiate with them at all except at work. Wee shall settle the rent with Master Newbold as soon as convenient I have been afraid all the winter that trade would be very bad with you. I wish you could do without Machines Shope Thomas will get into something else very soon or else he must expect to be peniless while he lives. Fred goes to a womans school and Tom goes to School half days to learn to write, wee have to pay 5d the half week for him. the first Sunday wee were here I took them with me to the Wesleyan Chapel and got them into Sunday School there is about forty children attends the school and our Children are very fond of going. on New Years Day the school children were well suplied with buns and tea. The Chapel is a very good one with a School room under it and the Methodist here are the most zealous set of people I have ever known. I have been to the prayer Meetings several times and at prayer they are as noysey as John Tweells. I haves been twice expecting to hear Mr M ??? at our Chapell but have been disappointed as he did not come. There are some very wealthy people attends the Chapell. I am sorry to say the people in this place generaly are very ignorant and the publichouses here are thronged on a Sunday. there is a great deal of work done at this station on the Sabath which ought not to be done it is a very shocking sight to see not less than twenty men at work all day porters sending ludgeage trains and Bookkeepers straightning their books. their has been two fresh hands here that would not stop and one that wee have now is about to leave he is a very steady young man. you will see by the date of this that I meant to have sent it sooner but I have had such a busy week and have come home very tired every night so I have put it off another Week. I am glad to tell you that Mary is something beter and my feet are nearly well. I was sorry to hear that my Club cost so much please send me word when you write wheather I am in benifit or not and how you would have me pay my money in future. Wee sent you two pairs of gloves and one pair of mits to Kegworth Station by some Leicester ?? did you get them. I that send you the London News and Supplement by this post hoping to hear from you immediately. With our love to you all John Swain

Wee were very sorry to find Mrs Barkers Brush amongst our things when wee got here but I will settle with her for it.

Altofts March 22 1846

Dear Father and Mother I received your last of March 3. I was glad you had made enquires about my Lodge. I feel very anxcious to keep in benifit in case I should need releif . nearly a fortnight since I sent you 1s 6d in a Newspaper by one of the Garos that works from here to Derby he promised to forward it to Wm Leicester at Kegworth station. as I have not heard from you since I am afraid you have not got what I sent you. I hope some of you will write to me by return Post, I have just been on another nights month of nights and I am thankful that hitherto I have escaped all accidents. We had two young men Porters here from Barrow one of them has got lamed and has gone home. He was a very civil man. We have had three other men lamed lately. I hope that will be beter soon. Wee begin to be very busy now Crowds of Pasengers by almost every train. The men are often knocked up and obliged to have rest and no one will stop when he can get another situation. My own health is very much improved lately and I can lift a load which I used. could not my wife is as well as usuall but the Children are well and look beter than ever I saw them for which I thank God. We are very to hear that Brother Thos is ill wee hope he will be beter soon. Perhaps a ride to Normanton would do him good. Wee should be glad to see him or any of you. Wee begin to think about all our old friends and though wee shall never like this place so well as Donington yet it is not likely we shall ever settle there again. besure some of you write soon and send us any news that you think will interest us. Mary says Catherine is in the habit of writing and might write to us as we know that Fathers time is to much took up with other things. next saturday night I shall send a paper by one of our Porters that will pass Kegworth. he will come back here on Sunday night or early on Monday morning. Will you be kind and get me one penceworth of Leek seed. such a thing is not known here and leave it at the station for me. I will tell him to ask Leicester for it. half a pint of kidney beans would be very useful to me they are 2s 6d per quart. Half a dozen Normantons would be acceptable. Has the Cows Calved. I am afraid trade is no beter. If it is send me word. Who works the machines when you go to Wilson. call on our Brother Thomas give my love to him and his Family and to Mrs Hibert. give my love to my aunt Barker and Family. hoping soon to hear from you. yours affectionally John Swain
