I haven`t got to my Beal line yet, but been watching. My grandmother`s maiden name was Beal (Corda) and she also used it for my dads middle name. Jewel Beal Myers. see also used Neal and Merritt, for two of her daughters middle names. I think neal was her mother`s maiden name. Does any of these names look familiar to anyone?
