Go to the Ninian Bell Web site or the Alexander Beall site. You will find a bunch of Bealls. My gggrandmother was a daughter of Colmore Beall. She may have died in Winterset Iowa about 1870-1873 as Rebecca Smith, wife of John Smith. She was from a family of 19 children, and another Zephaniah had 24 children. Some one probably has some idea about your Bealls. The name is often called BELL.
