....John William Harper son of Dr. Joseph Malone Harper had a daughter Mariah Harper who married Myron Jefferson Beard who is buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Elba. Mariah is buried with Barzillo Mixon, her second husband, in Old Ebenezer Church Cemetery in Dale County, Alabama. Malinda Harper, sister to Mariah was married to Washburn Elisha Law. I have no idea who Malinda Stokes is, but it was Mariah Harper who was married to Myron Jefferson Beard. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ray Faircloth" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 4:33 PM Subject: Re: [ALCOFFEE] Marion/Myron Harper Beard Mixon > The information given to me about this family (not my own research) is > conflicting.
