(7 Jun 1859 - 5 Sep 1949)

There is a record in the LDS Vital Records Index for the christening in Loughglynn of a Bridget Gordon, daughter of Thomas Gordon and Anne Foley. The date of the christening ties in with the date of birth provided by the family (June 1859) and not with the information on Bea in the 1901 census which indicates that she was born about 1865.

Bea and her husband, Laurence, lived in Clegna, Cootehall, Co. Roscommon. Bea died at the age of 90, outliving her husband, Laurence, by 21 years.
