Hello -- I'm brand new to the list and also to searching for Beall! Below is what I know/suspect re: my husband's Beall family. Does anyone recognize any of these names? Know the m. of Basil and Verlinda is right/wrong? Thanks so much! April Basil M. Beall Notes for this family: marriage info is tentative as I have no solid proof that this is the correct couple. I am uncertain as yet re: the parents of Catherine Wines (listed as d/o Edwd. & Francis Wines on m. records). James and Josephine Wines are siblings. Since Basil's name appears as B.M., Basil M. and Brazel [on Admiral C.'s m. records, mother as Delinda] the children are somewhat tentative but I believe it is correct as here. Their m. records are from Fauquier Co. VR. ----------------------- in answer to a query I posted (16 Oct 1998) to MontgCo GenWeb: "See Marriage Licenses of Montgomery Co MD 1798-1898 by Janet Thompson Manuel p 18 Basil M. Beall and Verlinder Wright 17 Apr 1850" from Shirley <sennis@erols.com> (answered same day) I have added this info although I have never seen the source since the names are unusual enough so that I feel safe in believing this is correct. [this may be an error in my thinking as it is turning out that both Basil and Verlinda in relation to Beall are not so uncommon!] I now (26 Oct. 1998) have a copy of the entry for the marriage of Basil and Verlinda which lists no parents for either. The only additional info listed is that they paid $4.50 for the marriage license. The Hist. Soc. sent nothing else. -------------------------------------- Spouse: Verlinda Wright Married 17 April 1850 at Montgomery Co., MD. Children and grandchildren: 1 Admiral C.
