The Beaumont Family Web site Projects page
Introduction
This list is an initial proposed list of projects that we hope to manage from this web site. This list will focus on UK records as we are most familiar with those. Other countries projects will follow.
Bibliographic collection.
We look for references to Beaumonts in various Library catalogues and will publish the entries from the Family History Library catalog at www.familysearch.org and the Library of Congress.
Online Publishing
Republish books (or in some cases pages from them) in the public domain related to Beaumonts that appear in the Bibliographic collection. The first book has been scanned and is available on this site. It is a 333 page book published around 1929 with, as far as we can tell, only two copies submitted to libraries.

Census Extracts
The UK 1881 census is the prime candidate for initial Beaumont indexing. We still need to find out what is allowed in terms of extraction and publishing.
Civil Registration Summaries
As the FreeBMD project progresses we will be publishing counts of Beaumonts by quarter by registration district.
