Hi Wilma: I apologized for taking so long to answer your email. No, my grandmother, Hallie Ree Beasley did not have a brother by the name of Jeptha. She had one sister and two brothers. Their names were Elvis (1892 to 1896), Elton (her sister) (1895 to 1974) and Gus (1898 to 1921). I wish I could have been more helpful.
