      Need any and all possible leads on BEASLEY families of
      FRANKLIN, VA. Thomas lived there when first son, Thomas, was born in 1823.
      George W., 2nd son possibly born in Franklin also. The family moved to Butler Co. KY before 1827 where daughter, Mary was born. These issue all married in Butler Co. Zachariah Richard, b. 1830, migrated with George W. to Texas before 1860.

    • Another Marriage Record for Field Jr. Jefferson and Elizabeth Beasley 7 Sep 1789; d/o Elizabeth Beasley -7

      NOTE: Three entries for marriages for Field Jefferson lst Elizabeth Beasley 7 Sep 1789
      2nd Field and Elizabeth BUSHBY 4 Apr 1790;
      3rd Field and Lucy Johnson, 5 Sep 1806; Daniel LOW, sur.
      SAME FIELD?

      Likely, Elizabeth is d/o Thomas Beasley (b Abt 1770 d. abt 1844) and Hannah K. Going m. abt 1789 (Stokes Co., NC) Brother of Elizabeth is Shadrack Beasley who married Martha T. Harris 28 Jan 1821 in Surry Co., NC as they name son Thomas Jefferson Beasley. Elizabeth evidently did not live long as Field is shown with another marriage one year later.
