Adam William Beam who was a coal miner and farmer and lived in Cuba, Illinois. He was married to Mary Ann Ford, October 16, 1893 at Smithfield.

Saul Beam and William = Beam are proven brothers. It is my understanding that county clerks in Illinoi= s have death records after 1877. Therefore, if you can get death records fo= r either Saul or William, it might give the names of their parents. Although I don't have proof, I think that these are the eleven children of John and Jane Beam. 1. Elizabeth m. Arthur McFarland 11-20-1807 b. circa 1789 Brown Co., OH = 2.
