Hi. I am brand new to this list and am making my first posting. I am looking for information on the Humphrey Beckett (Humphy Backett) on the 1810 census in Conocoheague Hundred. I am reasonably sure that he is the Humphrey Beckett that I am looking for and now need to ask if anyone knows of a Beckett family in the area. My Humphrey married Rachael Tyler in the county in 1806, as I remember off of the top of my head. Any information concerning his family, parents, anything, would be very appreciated. Are there any archives that will look up records in their holdings that are available in the county? Thank you in advance Bill Dalton
Bill, Lookup from my resources: 1. There is nothing under either spelling in Estate Distributions 1776-1835 2. There is only one BECKETT in the marriage license index from 1799-1860 Humphrey/Rachel TYLER 9/19/1806 3. Bartgis Republican Gazette (pub. in Frederick Co.) Oct. 5, 1804 - a letter remained at the post office for James BECKET. I couldn't find anything further in 3 other volumes of newspaper extractions. 4. There is nothing in Vol. II and III (of VII) in Cemetery Records. Your BECKETTs are elusive in my resources.
