Pete Best was the original Beatles drummer who was replaced on the 4th of September, 1962, by Ringo Starr (Richard Starkey). Jimmy Nicol was a stand-in drummer when Ringo was sick.
Most don't know about Jimmy Nicol's brief work with the band.
Additionally: Andy White was a session drummer, producer George Martin brought in for Love Me Do" and "P.S. I Love You". He apparently wasn't thrilled with Ringo at first.
They kicked Pete Best out because he wasn't being serious about the band; he never thought they would get to the top.
Each of them played drums to some degree, but Ringo Starr normally played them on their records.
Immediately before Ringo, Pete Best played drums in The Beatles, but the Beatles had a number of drummers before Ringo, including (for one night only) a local thug who "volunteered" to play for them!
Their first drummer was called Thomas Moore. Pete Best was the son of the owner of Liverpool's Casbah Club, where The Beatles played occasionally. Andy White was a session drummer who played on the second version of "Love Me Do".
Before Ringo joined Johnny Hutchinson (of Liverpool band the Big Three) also sat in for them a number of times when they were between full-time drummers.

"Lots" is probably the best answer; they went through at least 5 drummers - some on one night only. George Harrison said the best drummer they ever had was someone called Thomas Moore. Their most "durable" drummers were Pete Best - who was drummer for 2 years - and, of course, Ringo Starr.

Pete Best was fired by the other Beatles, (actually their manager George Martin), and replaced with Ringo Starr in 1962. He was fired because he was only an adequate drummer and not good enough to play for the Beatles.

Tommy Moore was never actually a member of the "Beatles". He was drummer for the "Silver Beetles" from mid-May to mid-June, 1960, during the bands' ongoing drummerless period when they had problems finding and keeping a drummer. Pete Best was next in the succession of drummers and started on the 12th of August, 1960. The "Silver Beetles" became the "Beatles" after Pete Best joined.
They played at the Casbah which was owned by pete Best( former drummers) Mom. They also played at the Cavern club which was small dark dingy gross basement filled to the brim with people.
The four members of the Beatles were not related to each other.
