Surname Spelling Convention: The family surname on all Scottish records appears primarily as Bicket, with some variations as Bichet, Bisket, and Becket, and others. After migrating to Ontario, Canada in 1820, the spelling appeared in 1851 as Beckett, in 1861 and 1871 as Bicket, in 1881 as Bickett, and exclusively Beckett from 1891 forward. Most other Canadian vital records show either Becket or Beckett from 1851 forward.
To establish a consistent convention that better yields search results in both Family Search and WikiTree, the 'First name at Birth' in Scotland is shown as 'Bicket', with births after arriving in Canada shown as 'Beckett'.
