  Date shown is not correct as it is based on death record
  
  Assumed to be daughter of Joshua; high probability. She took out bastardy orders in North Bradley, so was presumably born there. There are no other records of baptism for Betty Bevan at this time. Job Beaven's apprentice indentures name Jane Beaven as his mother. Joshua's youngest daughter was Jane.
