This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: sbparadis Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.beasley/2230.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I would be happy to participate if I qualify. My paternal grandmother was a Beasley- her name was Emily Beasley Brittain and was descended from William Pitts Beasley who was supposedly the illegitimate child of Lord William Pitt- that would make them from Warwickshire, I think. These Beasleys settled in Leiper's Fork, Tn. Emily Beasley Brittain is survived by 2 sons (my father and uncle)- she also had a daughter who is deceased, but SHE has several daughters and sons living. Any of these folks would participate.
