OH Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Guernsey/1368 Surname: Beal ------------------------- I have more info on the Tirzah Beal you reference in your posting.

Tirzah's father, Asberry Lee Beal, was the last of 16 children born to Isaac Beal, b. March 7, 1807, and Jane Neal (Neel). Jane's parents were William Neel, b. 1776 in Ireland, d. abt 1842 in Guernsey Co., and Mary Ann Sheridine (Sheridan). They were married in 1797 or 98. Hope this is helpful.
