Fellow Behymer researchers: Here is yet another Behymer missing link. This James lived in the Putnam County, IN area, the same area where Jesse P Hymer (aka Beckelhymer), son of John Beckelhymer and Elizabeth Miller lived. I have pieced together what I think is his family from the various census records. It appears, although I am not sure, that he married 3 times. If anyone has any information on this James, please contact me. Descendants of James Becklehimer Generation One 1. JAMES1 BECKLEHIMER was born circa 1826 VA. He married Julia A (--?--).
