  • Notes 
    • Joseph Wilson Beaumont was the son of Phineas Beaumont of Wakefield, Yorkshire, England, and his second wife Hannah Beaumont, born on 26 September 1828 in Wakefield. Joseph's family moved to Sheffield, whence as a young man of 21 years, he was admitted to the Royal College of Surgeons in London. He became a physician and held the position of Medical Officer of the Wakefield General Dispensary. In 1854, Joseph married Louisa Plint in Leeds and began a career that would cause him to travel about Yorkshire, before immigrating in 1872 to Ontario, Canada. Joseph settled his family in Waterloo County, where he took up ministering in the form of becoming a clergyman. It is unclear when he wrote "The Apostolic Origin of the Church of England." Retired and widowed, Joseph was living with his spinster daughter Marian in London City, Ontario, when he died of bronchial pneumonia at age 86 in 1915. His son, Ernest Joseph Beaumont would go on to become a local Registrar of the Supreme Court of Ontario.
