Laura, I am copying your message to the BEACHLEY-L mail list at Rootsweb in case there are other researchers who might be researching the same families. On Dec. 24, 2001, you posted, <<Do you have anything on a George C. BEACKLEY. He ws born in 1856 in Middletown, Maryland. His father was Daniel O. BEACHLEY and his father was John BEACHLEY, but they were both born in Ruhrersville, Maryland. I would be interested in any information.>> Of the five Daniel Beachleys within my database, I have two Daniels who were sons of a John Beachley. I don't have a middle initial for either of these Daniels but one had a child named John Orestus so perhaps he is the one. His wife's father was named George which is another clue, and his dates seem to work well, also. I only have one of the children of this Daniel BEACHLEY so I do not know if he is the father of your George C. Beachley. Do you know who the wives were of your Daniel or his father John? That would help to determine if this is the correct family. Here is what I have. Daniel BEACHLEY, b. 1829, s/o John BEACHLEY and Catherine LINEBAUGH, m. 23 Dec 1851, Ann Rebecca SHAFER, d/o GEORGE Shafer and Elizabeth UNKNOWN. Only child known to me, John Orestus BEACHLEY, b. 11 Aug 1868, d. 30 Sep 1930, m. 19 Dec 1895, Laura V. Ahalt, d/o Lewis Henry AHALT and Ann Margaret FLOOK. I would love to know the death date of the above Daniel BEACHLEY, if you have it, as well as his other children. Please join the free Beachley mail list by clicking on the link below.
