He was baptised on 8 August 1875 at St Mary&#8217;s Church, Platt, in Malling, Kent.

Sadly, Mina died in 1904, and two years later Harry remarried &#8211; this time to Elizabeth Ann TANSLEY, on 26 June 1906, in Winton, Southland, NZ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elizabeth Ann TANSLEY was born 28 January 1882 in Milton, Otago, NZ, to Henry Edward TANSLEY &amp; Mary Ann TOUGH.

Elizabeth lived in nearby Granity, raising their five children, until the 1920s when the family moved to Millerton. Harry was also a musician, <a href=\"https:\/\/paperspast.natlib.govt.nz\/newspapers\/GRA19201028.2.56\">a cornet player who played in the local orchestra &amp; bands<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some time before 1935, Harry, Elizabeth &amp; son Edward moved to 20 Tawa Street, Wanganui. Harry died on 15 May 1946, and Elizabeth on 12 Jun 1952. Both were cremated, with a memorial in Aramoho Cemetery, Wanganui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"560\" src=\"http:\/\/mooncrowned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Photo-HarryBevin-BridgetMinaCrawford.jpg\" alt=\"Black and white photo of Harry Bevin and wife\" class=\"wp-image-418\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mooncrowned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Photo-HarryBevin-BridgetMinaCrawford.jpg 560w, http:\/\/mooncrowned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Photo-HarryBevin-BridgetMinaCrawford-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mooncrowned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Photo-HarryBevin-BridgetMinaCrawford-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 85vw, 560px\" \/><figcaption>Harry Bevin &amp; first wife Bridget Mina (Crawford)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children&#8217;s Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thomas Henry James BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 17 Jan 1901, Winton, SLD, NZ<br>Married between 1938-1946, Wanganui, MWT, NZ to Sybil Florence AMON<br>Died 18 Jun 1960, Wanganui, MWT, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Francis Crawford BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 7 Mar 1904, Dunedin, OTG, NZ<br>Married 1930, Dunedin, OTG, NZ, to Annie Amy RITCHIE<br>Died 25 Mar 1967, Dunedin, OTG, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mavis Mary BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 2 May 1907, Westport, Buller, NZ<br>Died 16 Apr 1921, Westport, Buller, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mooncrowned.com\/blog\/?page_id=303\">Doreen Alice BEVIN<\/a><\/strong><br><em>Born 14 Sep 1908, Westport, Buller, NZ<br>Married 7 Feb 1929, Millerton, Buller, NZ to William James MAY<br>Died 21 Jul 1982, Wanganui, MWT, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ivan Arthur BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 1910 Granity, Buller, NZ<br>Married between 1936-1946, Wellington, NZ to Cissie Priscilla Queenie (LINE) MUNRO<br>Died 26 Jul 1960, Karori, WTN, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Edward Roland BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 1913 Granity, Buller, NZ<br>Married 1940, Northland, NZ to Kathleen Mary Rita BERNARD<br>Died 23 Mar 1958, Auckland, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>James Simpson BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 30 May 1915, Granity, Buller, NZ<br>Married 1936, Wanganui, MWT, NZ to Gwenneth Ellen BERTHOLD<br>Died 30 Nov 2003, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Leoni Mabel BEVIN<\/strong><br><em>Born 24 Jul 1917, Granity, Buller, NZ<br>Married 14 Oct 1939, Wanganui, MWT, NZ to George Edmund SWAIN<br>Died 10 Dec 2001, Wanganui, MWT, NZ<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The parents of my great-grandmother, Doreen Alice BEVIN, were Henry BEVIN &amp; Elizabeth Ann TANSLEY.
