I have not had this confirmed yet but I am pretty sure that I have a family member born in the Tower.
I guess that his parents would have worked there as my uncle is sure that we had a "Beefeater" in the family, not sure about that, would anyone know if there is a site dedicated to workers at The Tower?
He was Richard Ashton 1856
Son of Richard Ashton and Martha Moore (nee Williams), I think they moved around quite a bit as Richard snr was born in Pewsey Wilts, apprx 1821 Martha came from Northern Ireland and they had children born in Savernake Wilts, Antrim, and India
I would really love to know why Richard may have been born at the Tower, any suggestions?
