Albert Beetham (b. 25 Mar 1907), son of Joseph William Beetham and Clara Alice Stephenson, married Harriet Elizabeth Tummon (b. 28 Jan 1911), daughter of George Tummon and Fanny Elwick, when she was 17, in Hull, in 1928. 

Albert and Harriet appear to have had seven or eight children:
  1. Ivy E Beetham b. 1929 Q3 in Sculcoates
  2. Irene Beetham b. 1933 Q4 in Hull
  3. Clarice Beetham b. 1934 Q4 in Sculcoates, died in the same quarter.
  4. Doreen Beetham b. 1935 Q4 in Hull
  5. Albert Beetham b. 22 Nov 1936 (registered 1937 Q1) in Hull
  6. Bertha Beetham b. 1939 Q1 in Hull
  7. Iris Beetham b. 1947 Q3 in Hull
Additionally, there was a death of an infant Albert Beetham who was born and died in 1932, who may well have also been the child of this couple, however the birth record is not available to confirm the mother's maiden name.

In 1939, living at 11 Merrick Street, Kingston Upon Hull (the street no longer has housing) were Albert Beetham, Timber Porter and his wife listed as Elizabeth Beetham, then three closed records that would correspond to Ivy E, Irene and Doreen, then Albert Beetham and a further closed record (Bertha).

Albert Beetham died, aged 65, in 1972 in Holderness.

Harriet Elizabeth Beetham died, aged 81, in November 1992, in Hull.
