Beal, Mark

Beal, Mark, Farmer, Grange Farm, East Eyreton. Mr. Beal was born in 1857 at Newcastle-on-Tyne, England, and, at the age of two years, he accompanied his parents to Lyttelton in the ship “Clontarf.” The family settled at Eyreton almost immediately, and have ever since farmed the original holding. Since 1892 Mr. Beal has owned and worked Grange Farm, which consists of 100 acres. He is also the proprietor of threshing machinery and traction engines, and undertakes work in the season throughout the district. Mr. Beal is a member of the Ohoka Lodge of Oddfellows. He was married, in 1889, to a daughter of the late Mr. F. Moore, of East Eyreton, and has one son and four daughters.
